Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Bessie Smyth
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
Frances Chung
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

The film's biggest strength fact is that it is produced by a family who have entirely devoted to Horror genre in their entire Carree of filmmaking , the director Deepak Ramsay is the son of Producer Tulsi Ramsay . The film is not at all scary compared to the contemporary host of horror films . But the same point is inclusive in the fact that it's neither have silly stereotypes of Ghost movies nor it consists of a hackneyed plot of a deadly soul seeking revenge similar to the most of the horror film's which releases every week. Although it has the titled of Aatma and the main plot rounds around the soul of Avinash in vengeance, much of the story focuses on Neha wife of Aman whom the deadly Soul possesses, three antagonist who are eying the property , a serious Policemen investigating the case and Aman husband of Neha ; who wrongfully prepares the Autoposy report. Speaking of the performances everybody was amateurish , except Sadhasiv Amarpurkar who has very little to showcase his talent according to the script and the main Aatma Soul who only looks convincing as he keeps on staring. Surprisingly the film is shot with detailed and dark photography , which impressed me lot more than the whole film,shots with blue and red theme are vibrant and add meaning to the film plot. This is also plus point as nowadays horror films usually go for Black color theme which is quite invisible. It's not a good Scary movie but it will definitely keep you engrossed because of the Script which oscillates in many characters and remains steady . I rated the movie 9 because i really found the movie worth watching despite it's poor performances. I strongly recommend you to watch this movie as it deserves one time watch and it's worth it.

I wasn't expecting much from 'Aatma' when I first rented it. The movie seems heavily inspired by SFX tricks that recent avant-garde horror movies have been using. Besides special effects, 'Aatma' has nothing new to promise. The star cast is below average as most of the actors are either struggling souls or have lost their game at the big arena of Bollywood after a hard struggle.Dr. Aman (Kapil Zaveri) is a surgeon of high repute. He is assisted by his sister-in-law (wife's sister) Dr. Aarti (Amreina). Aarti is a jovial teen who is romantically embroiled with Siddharth (Vikram Singh). Aman is happily married to Neha (Neha) and they seem to be as happy as a kitten with a saucer of milk. One night a stone-faced man (Deep Dhillon) knocks Dr. Aman's door. When Aman inquires of his intentions, the man says that a man named Avinash Malhotra has died and Aman is supposed to enter the right cause of his death in the postmortem report or else Aman and his family would be in great peril. He also tells that Avinash Malhotra was poisoned and his death wasn't a natural one.Next day Dr. Aman is jogging when some vagabonds stop him on the way and tell him that he should enter the false cause of Avinash Malhotra's death in the postmortem report. Moments later a man named Advocate Khurana (Sadashiv Amrapurkar) meets Aman in his hospital and repeats the same thing what vagabonds said earlier. He also arranges Aman's conversation with the man who wants to falsify the postmortem report. He is no other than Vikram Malhotra (Mukesh Tiwari), Avinash Malhotra's younger brother.Aman doesn't want to entertain these high brows but has to reluctantly succumb to their demands when his wife Neha is tormented. This mistake forms the crux of the story. Aman forges the postmortem report as directed and soon he and his wife Neha are terrorized by the vengeful spirit of Avinash. Neha is possessed and the villains go down one by one.We must accept whatever is trashed out because most of the Bollywood horror flicks do not have a more sinister plot to offer. The film is not at all cheesy or cheap by any means. Due to good performances and enticing SFX, the movie also evades sleaziness. Ramsays have proved that in the long run of B-grade horror shockers, they are still millions of miles ahead of the rotten and turgid directors like R. Mittal, R.K. Khanna, Dharam, and the list might go on.
