Why watch this film?
Netflix brought another production from India that completely deviates from traditional Bollywood films. 'Raat Akeli Hai' is a political suspense that keeps the viewer glued until they discover what is happening. In the plot, a policeman is investigating the murder of a politician and finds himself in the middle of a web of lies from the victim's family. It is possible to compare the story with Rian Johnson's 'Knives Out', but with a darker touch. 'Raat Akeli Hai' is a great mystery movie and will please even those who are skeptical about Indian cinema.
