Contrary to the common belief that horror films struggle to make significant box office numbers, Ajay Devgn’s “Shaitaan” shattered this notion. Fueled by positive word-of-mouth, the film crossed the 200 crore mark worldwide, with domestic collections reaching around 150 crores nett. Ajay Devgn’s star power combined with compelling content played a pivotal role in the film’s impressive box office performance.
Now, this spine-chilling horror movie is available for streaming on Netflix in Hindi audio with English subtitles, offering a golden opportunity for those who missed its theatrical run. “Shaitaan” revolves around a stranger who attempts to manipulate a young girl through hypnotism and black magic, prompting her parents to embark on a perilous journey to free her.
Featuring Ajay Devgn and Jyothika as the husband and wife duo, with Janki Bodiwala portraying their daughter, “Shaitaan” marked Jyothika’s return to Hindi cinema after three decades. The versatile actor Madhavan portrayed the antagonist in the film. Directed by Vikas Bahl, the movie was co-produced by Ajay Devgn, Abhishek Pathak, Kumar Mangat Pathak, and Jyoti Deshpande.
