Plot – The story of the movie is about two London-based siblings Natasha Merchant (Huma) and Kabir(Saqib) who's lives were torn apart due to a series of unfortunate incidents that occurred in their childhood. The brother and sister were separated from each other in childhood as the 11-year-old Kabir was locked up for counselling due to a suspected murder of his dad. The movie progresses with a mix of present and flashback moments that slowly unveils that the culprit of their disturbed childhood was the mirror there father bought. Now after a decade the brother-sister duo reunite kill or rather break the mirror that ruined their life, but it seems the Mirror has some more evil plans. Review – The movie is definitely above the other mundane horror flicks made in our country. The scenes where the actress recalls her childhood are scary and the sudden shift from past to present and past again keeps the audiences at the edge of their seats. But the real game starts when eventually Kabir and Natasha plan to destroy the mirror but the mirror goes unhurt and shows its worse evil side. As we all know that the movie is adapted from the famous Hollywood horror film Oculus (2013), ‘Dobaara’ is full of moments of fear and sudden scare.  This movie had good potential but it looked a tad too stretched at times. Music – The movie has 4 songs, with multiple composers, lyricists and singers. The song ‘Kaari Kaari’ is melodious and talks about the dark night that changed the fate of a happy family. The song is sung by Asees Kaur and Akro and has a perfect flavour that suits the movie’s spooky theme.  The other songs of the movie include 'Malang' that has a sufi touch to it, Arijit Singh’s ‘Abb Raat’ and Neha Pandey’s Humdarad’. Why To Watch – If you really wish to experience the adrenal rush than it is definitely a movie you should watch. It gives you enough moments of creeps and chills.
