Plot

Rishi and Diya are college youngsters who married each other without their parents' approval. After taking a detour while returning home after celebrating Diya's birthday, a distracted Rishi drives their car into a road roller parked on the side of a deserted road. After recovering from the shock, they step out of the car and approach a flickering light, which turns out to the funeral pyre at a crematorium. Upon the scared Diya's insistence, they return home and find that each of their reflections shows a different face. What caused this change and whether the couple recover from this trauma forms the rest of the story.

Reception

A critic from The Hindu wrote that "This isn’t the smartest film in the horror space, but it tries to bring in something new. If only the taut first half was followed by an equally gripping latter half".[7] A critic from The Times of India wrote, "Ninu Veedani Needanu Nene is promising in parts with entertaining moments but loses steam when it matters the most".[1]
