The horror film that shook the world

"Such a big hit because of the girl's sadism"
Naga Vamsi explained, 'The movie is fantastic, a technically brilliant film, no doubt. But the youth rushed to theatres to enjoy the sadism shown by a girl. It's like how we would enjoy our friend being tormented by his girlfriend... they showed the same thing. Of course, there were scary scenes too'.
