agyaat_posterJungle fever has never been many contagious. Every corner of the Sri Lankan jungle within “Agyaat”, as shot with mesmeric expertise via cinematographer Surjodeep Ghosh, is filled with danger.

Star cast: Introducing Nitin Reddy, Priyanka Kothari, Gautam Rode, Ishrat Ali, Howard Rosemeyer, Joy Fernandes and Ravi Kale

Director: Ram Gopal Varma

There lurks a diabolic unknown (’agyaat’) monster within the treacherous greenery. Ram Gopal Varma has always been a master of manipulative terror. His camara range is constantly petrifying and insistently resonant. The sequences within “Agyaat” are ceaselessly shot within a distance that indicates the presence of fatal souls and units whom we and the civilians onto screen cannot see…only feel.

Agyaat tells the story of a film crew arriving in a dense forest to shoot their film. The team consist of of a tantrum pitching hero Sharman (Gautam), the heroine he poorly lusts for – Aasha (Kothari), a South Indian producer Moorty (Ishrat Ali), an eccentric director JJ (Howard), a submissive dot boy Laxman (Ishtiyak Khan), the philosophical cameraman Shakky (Kali Prasad), a forever frustrated Action director Rakka (Kale), Assistant Director Sujal (Nitin) and the plain script manager girl Sameera (Rasika Duggal) whoever has a confidential crush on Sujal. While Sameera pines for Sujal, he dreams of attaining the film’s spearheading lady Aasha. Circumstances lead to a pair day shoot break. Setu (Joy) the regional jungle steer thereafter advises a small camping outing in the jungle. During evening as shortly as everybody is enjoying the bonfire, chasing a odd cries Setu goes on to discover more approximate it but doesn’t return. When the crew membership go on to locate him they locate his dead body. Petrified, they all attempt to run out the jungle but their car meets with an accident. Now ambushed in the unknown terrain as they attempt to locate their way out more crew membership begin dying beneath inexplicable circumstances.

Who knows who’s killing the film unit in “Agyaat”? Maybe it’s their own fears and ambitions that are killing them. And the crew’s calm cinematographer (Kali Prasad Mukherjee) finally commits suicide. The spoilt bratty superstar’s spotboy (Ishteyak) is pulled into a gruesome death even as he chants mantras to protect himself. While in Varma’s previous comparatively-tacky horror outing “Phoonk”, god felled the devil, in “Agyaat” nothing works. You are doomed in the jungle. No force can protect you. As one member after another of the film-within-film gets eliminated, Varma seems to be spoofing Agatha Christie’s “10 Little Indians”.

There are dollops of tantalizing irony in the way the typical and tight hierarchy in a film unit evaporates as imminent peril puts people in perilous positions. The repressed spotboy’s outburst against the spoilt superstar played by Gautam Rode, every inch the despicable brat, is a masterly manoeuvre designed to show how fear melts all class differences.
