Want something great to watch over the weekend? We’ve got a suggestion for you. Produced by Ronnie Screwvala and directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the Kakuda movie is ZEE5’s latest addition to the genre of horror-comedy movies. Starring Riteish Deshmukh, Sonakshi Sinha, and Saqib Saleem in lead roles, Kakuda is a delightful watch that deserves to be on your watchlist.
Kakuda Movie Premise: A Horror-Comedy Goldmine
It all starts in the remote village of Ratodi. The people here are laden with the curse of Kakuda, which means, you need to open a smaller door adjacent to your main door for Kakuda every Tuesday at 7:15 PM. Failing to do so will leave you with a hump on your back and 13 days to live after being kicked in the chest by this feared ghost.
Indira and Sunny’s Love Story
Amid all this chaos, Sunny(Saqib Saleem) and Indira(Sonakshi Sinha) fall in love. They elope and get married, resulting in Sunny being late to open the door for Kakuda. Now kicked by Kakuda, Sunny helplessly awaits his death with a hump on his back. Whereas Indira vows to save her husband – much like the revered Indian tale of Satyavan-Savitri.
Enter Victor – The Dynamic Ghost Hunter
When everything fails, here comes Victor(Riteish Deshmukh), the Tantrik, oops, we mean the Ghost Hunter! After a spooky entry, this dynamic modern-day Ghost Hunter teams up with Indira and Sunny’s best friend Kilvish(Aasif Khan) to save Sunny and help Kakuda attain salvation. Together, they uncover the secret behind Kakuda’s wrath, but will that be enough to save Sunny? Watch the Kakuda movie online on ZEE5 and find out!
Exceptional VFX and Captivating Screenplay
Whether it’s the prosthetics of the ghost or the fascinating VFX used to narrate his backstory, Kakuda brings something new to the table in every aspect. The story, screenplay, and dialogues written by Avinash Dwivedi and Chirag Garg will keep you hooked till the end. Meanwhile, Aditya Sarpotdar’s direction makes it a must-watch whether you like horror movies or comedy movies.
Social Commentary
The film perfectly captures the vices of our society. It shows how people who are different from what is considered “normal” are treated, and how they crave acceptance. The film also shows the negative effects of superstitions.
Final Verdict
Whether you’re a fan of Riteish Deshmukh movies, Sonakshi Sinha movies, or Saqib Saleem movies, Kakuda is a horror-comedy that you absolutely must add to your watchlist. So grab your popcorn, get your family together, and watch Kakuda on ZEE5!
