As far as execution is concerned, while the unhurried unfolding of mystery adds depth to the film, it also demands patience from the viewers, which may or may not work in its favour. Nonetheless, this tale of the ‘perfect crime’ will appeal to fans of the genre.

Rahasya is not the perfect murder mystery. It has its drag moments and so if you have grown-up watching CID, you may like a better version of it. Not an exceptional story or execution…

Bollywood has witnessed many a reel-life-imitating-real-life films like ANKUR ARORA MURDER CASE, NO ONE KILLED JESSICA etc. With RAHASYA, director Manish Gupta has tried his level best to keep the secret (read ‘whodunit’) intact. RAHASYA can be skipped without any regret.

There’s an urgency in RAHASYA that’s hard to define or comprehend. Manish Gupta, the director, seems to be batting like an out-of-form Yusuf Pathan in a T-20 match, trying to hit everything out of the boundary line, missing every delivery.
