Kriti, directed by Shirish Kunder, co-stars Manoj Bajpayee as a writer and Neha Sharma as the titular Kriti. Radhika plays the writer's friend and psychiatrist.
The film oscillates between reality and the writer's imagination. Is he really a psychotic killer or is it just in his mind?
Shirish, who has earlier made feature films like Jaaneman and Joker, hasn't had a good run at the box office.
At an event to launch the film, he told IANS, "I was very relieved, not thinking about box-office numbers, or the censors. We could have made whatever we wanted. In feature films when we think of something right and by the time we make it. Here you make something and it is out in 2-3 months."
Kriti has already been watched and endorsed by several celebrities. Karan Johar, Farhan Akhtar and Abhishek Bachchan tweeted:
