Yes, The Girl on The Train is based on the book by Paula Hawkins<\/a><\/strong>, except that here, the characters are all desi.<\/p>\n

Parineeti plays Mira Kapoor, a woman who thinks she saw something out of a window of a moving train. It doesn’t help that she’s a depressed borderline alcoholic, has “episodes”, and can’t be taken seriously (I’m going off of the book here – the film might have indianised this a bit). The marvelous Kirti Kulhari plays the policewoman investigating crime. Adits Rao Hydari and Avinash Tiwary also star.<\/p>\n

I loved the book so I’m hoping that director Ribhu Sengupta (who directed the well-done Amitabh-starrer series Yudh) doesn’t mess the movie up. The trailer looks fantastic, so here’s hoping! This is on Netflix 26th of February.<\/p>\n
