Confronting the ghosts of one’s past can be as troubling as it is necessary. The actor reveals that as soon as she read the script of the Ribhu Dasgupta-directed psychological thriller, she understood it was one of those rare films that would take an emotional toll on her. Refusing to divulge details of the dark chapters of her life, she says, “I never wanted to face those incidents again.

In 2016, the novel was adapted into a Hollywood offering, featuring Emily Blunt.
