    This surprisingly beats many Hollywood horror movies

    Great story, really surprising twists, acting by the leads especially Anushka Sharma, perhaps a beginning of a new era in Indian horror movie genre.

    What's all the negativity about? This is a pure piece of art!

    Pari gives a new definition to bollywood's attempt at horror movies.With brilliantly executed story line,the performance from each and every actor makes this a masterpiece which is quite unusual from hindi cinema in horror genre.From direction to the background score everything just seem to fit in place.The movie will give you chills at some instance but will surely leave you with imagination with its on the spot story. Though this art is not meant for 'Mass-Audience' but the content-lovers would surely give this a thumbs up without any doubt.If you want to see something that might excite new thoughts in your mind this surely is dedicated piece of art meant for you.The poor reviews of the movie are due to sleepless audience that find comfort in cinema seats & air conditioned environment and have got nothing to do with content of the movie. Fall in love with bollywood and dont miss this show...

    A much needed non clichéd horror ride.

    This is an absolutely amazing horror film which thankfully doesn't include any unnecessary false jump scares. Many critics and audiences are hating this film and that can be understood because this film is not for the masses. You would either hate it or truly love it.

    When Arnab finds Rukhsana chained in an abandoned house, he decides to take her under his wings and teaches her how to behave like a human. Arnab's reasons and Rukhsana's past are explored chillingly in the film. It's green and blue frames are scary and admirable. A horror scene involving earphones has to be the most memorable scene in the history of horror films. The performances from all the cast is exceptionally good. Do watch Pari if you are tired of all the silly and unintentionally funny horror films of the bollywood and want to seek something new and fresh.

    Excellent....Different story

    Rightly said " It's not a fairy tale" , A proper justice given to tag line. Most of the time I experienced that less marketed movies was far better than 100,200,...Crores club movies, this is the perfect example of that. No one was expecting this type of story line from watching the trailer but believe me the different story (connection haven't found in any bollywood movie) with awesome screenplay by Prosit Roy & Abhishek Banerjee is magnificent, Those who are comedy lover & entertainment lover who finds comedy & entertainment in each & every movie, this is not for them, so don't go for it but If you want something new, this is for you & they can go definitely. Editor Manas Mittal has given his life's best performance. Main heart of the movie is obviously Anushka Sharma(kohli) because she has hit a century like Virat. A movie with good message, a mystery, some part of suspense & obvious horror. As a debut director Prosit Roy has done fabulous job. As the last it's not for all but if you are a horror movie lover this is the one you will find something majestic.

    Redifining Bollywood Horror Genre

    Pari.... what a movie it was. The atmosphere, sound design and acting of all the cast are top notch. Pari is not like other silly Bollywood horror flicks. The complete story is thoroughly gripping. Anushka delivers a mind blowing performance here. I would watch it again. There's only two ways either you like the movie like anything else or you simply hate it.

    Pari awesome.

      After Arnab Bagchi's car runs over a woman and he steps out of the car, though its supposedly raining heavily, you can clearly see its bright and sunny in the distant background. Fatal editing error.
