How it scared people
The vibe
The new flat on the thirteenth floor comes with a soap opera that airs on exactly one television set in the world, running a few steps ahead of the family watching it. Madhavan plays the only one who notices. Vikram Kumar shot the film twice over, in Hindi and Tamil, and the ordinary joint-family clutter around the haunting is what makes it stick.
