I liked the cover of the movie specially a man lying down in a operation table and surgeon looking each other makes curious to look at it. I thought I would enjoy a lot I did but at some point when they start showing soul in the movie I thought like a hindi movie soul finding its existence. Well its a movie to watch at least.
