Blind is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language crime thriller film directed by Shome Makhija and produced by Sujoy Ghosh, Avishek Ghosh, Hyunwoo Thomas Kim, Sachin Nahar, Pinkesh Nahar and Manish W.[1] The film features Sonam Kapoor in a leading role[2] [3] with Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak and Lillete Dubey in supporting roles.[4] Blind, a remake of the 2011 Korean film of the same name, centres around a blind police officer in search of a serial killer.[5] The principal photography began on 28 December 2020 in Glasgow, Scotland[6] [7] and wrapped up on 13 February 2021. The film premiered on 7 July 2023 on JioCinema.[8] The film received negative reviews from critics and audience. This marks the last film appearance of Kapoor before her temporary hiatus.
The film followed the story of Gia Singh, who travelled to her mother’s house one gloomy night. She was waiting for a Taxi, but instead of a taxi, a private car picked her up. But the car driver was not a common man; he was a psycho kidnapper who kidnapped the ladies and badly tortured them to death. Recently, some cases were filed in the police station for missing women, and followed by that, the sensible blind lady Gia Singh’s sixth sense gave her doubt; she also stated the same to the police, but the COP took Gia lightly.
The missing cases were handled by the detective Prithvi. Very soon, he uncovers the chilling truth - this was no ordinary kidnapping spree; it was a meticulously orchestrated saga of serial abductions, intricately interwoven and interconnected.
Assisted by Gia Singh, how Prithvi unravels the dark secrets and expose the malevolent orchestrator, forms the crux of the film.
The principal photography commenced on 28 December 2020 in Scotland.[9] [10] The film was wrapped up on 13 February 2021.[11] [12]
