Ajay Devgn and R. Madhavan starrer Shaitaan released on Thursday, and it looks like the film lived up to its promising trailer. Vikas Bahl’s directorial is a supernatural thriller, and a remake of a Gujarati film titled Vash.
A sinister individual, played by Madhavan, enters the life of a family and wrecks their happiness. He uses black magic to manipulate their daughter, reducing her to a mere puppet, while tormenting her to obey all his orders, like eating powdered tea, entertaining him, and even hitting his father, played by Ajay Devgn.
People had an array of opinions, ranging from underwhelming remake to oustanding performances. Here’s what they are saying –
I'm trying so hard to find a mistakes in #Shaitaan movie, but I couldn't find a single mistake in this movie.#Drishyam2 is nothing in front of #Shaitaan , But So difficult for #Shaitaan to cross 200cr At the Indian Box Office.

#Shaitaan ~ Below Average black magic show is ordinary, repetitive & tiresome in the first 2 acts, until that satisfying climax. This isn't anything groundbreaking in Horror genre. Madhavan shines👌 its his show all the way. Ajay Devgn, Jyothika & kids decent. (2☆/5) pic.twitter.com/6I3MgrMgNX

#Shaitaan hugely benefits from the convincing performances of the ensemble cast & a eerie score provided by Amit Trivedi.

Those who have seen Vash, would conclude, this is a watered down version of what was otherwise a hopeless and dire conclusion.
Engaging nonetheless 👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/EVLYF8aYAD

Personally, it’s watching Madhavan and Devgn together that gives me enough motivation to tune in for the film.
