The Wife and a malevolent spirit

Team L&M

We have often heard tales of supernatural entities lurking around where we live, just waiting to nab us at the “right” time. Though many say they’re just urban legends, some say “she” won’t let you go! Are you ready to be haunted by your dreams? But remember that it’s not our fault if you are unable to sleep at night after watching debutant writer-director Sarmad Khan’s urban horror film, The Wife

To be streamed from March 19 on Zee5, the horror stars Gurmeet Choudhary and debutante Sayani Datta as a married couple who soon after moving into their new apartment find their idyllic life unraveling in the most horrific ways due to the presence of a malevolent spirit. When their relationship crumbles, they realise they must stick together to not only save their marriage but also their lives.

The film is produced by Zee Studios who have launched the poster of the film. It features the lead cast in it and looks super intriguing as it unveils both romances as well as an ominous undertone running through it.

“This is my first solo lead and you’ll get to see me in a whole new and different avatar in this film. The script is so fresh, you’ll find the movie to be a perfect amalgamation of spine-chilling horror, action, romance, drama, and everything that you’d expect and more,” says Gurmeet.

Making her debut in The Wife, Sayani says, “I’m a huge fan of the horror genre and to be able to make my debut in one is the most exciting feeling ever. The entire experience of being a part of such a wonderful film has been a very fulfilling one indeed.”
