Malini Sharma had the most potential. I got nightmares after watching Raaz. I must have been a preteen. Even "what lies beneath" is not as scary. They keep the spirit as a good spirit. In Raaz they had to make the spirt wicked in order to glorify the adulterous husband, make him look like a good guy and a poor victim. (So typical of Hindi films. š) But boy did they make the spirit wicked and did Malini's acting scared the living daylights out of me and my cousins. We all saw it together with family as kids.
I have not seen Pooja Selvi's work.
+1. Raaz is one of the few BW movies thatās still scary af! It gave me nightmares as a kid. Especially that banshee scream. Malini was super scary as the ghost girl and even when her character was alive she was creepy as hell. But still so beautiful ā¤ļø Wonder where she disappeared.Originally posted by: Grumpydwarf24Malini Sharma had the most potential. I got nightmares after watching Raaz. I must have been a preteen.

Damn Udita Goswami was so hot! Itās a shame we saw her only in a few films.

Every person I know has the funniest stories as a child. Was I a pre-teen? I must have been younger. We had just seen "What lies Beneath" the previous year in Europe. We weren't scared watching that. I could not sleep alone at night after watching Raaz. I needed one of my parents there with me. So did my cousins. No Indian horror film has managed to do that before or after. Most are unintentional comedies. š It is funny "What lies beneath" is more of thriller because you do not expect the ending but it is not even half as scary. Raaz even the director said was inspired by "What lies beneath" for the most part.

- Malini was terrifying in Raaz and unfortunately first impression has a lingering impact, especially if you do a good job at it. She couldāve played the role of a butterfly and Iād still think sheās a possessed ghost screaming in the woods.

I donāt blame you. Raaz was one legit scary movie at that time. I remember I couldnāt even watch it during the day while alone lol. The atmosphere, those woods, the music, the haunting hills, that mirror wala scene was creepy as hell. Do recommend some good horror movies please, I am a total sucker for them šOriginally posted by: Grumpydwarf24

Did they dub Uditaās voice in Aksar too? If they didnāt I must say she had a really sexy voice š Was never a great actress but those erotic type movies were ever hardly about acting lol. Koena was blah and Sneha was a sasti copy of Aish š¤Originally posted by: FingerFetish

I just skimmed through the movie on youtube and my ears are traumatised. Thatās not her real voice. In fact, her voice was dubbed by someone named Neeti Mather, who also dubbed my arch nemesisās voice, the one and only, Kripa Sharma from Kaisa Ye Pyar Hai. š¤® I never thought that in this janam Iād ever have to hear that voice again.
