A troubled divorcee becomes embroiled in a murder investigation
This Indian, Hindi-language remake of the 2016 American mystery thriller of the same name received mixed reviews from critics. Both films are, of course, based on Paula Hawkins eponymous 2015 novel. As the name suggests, the story is played out with a train journey as its centrepiece. Whereas the 2016 film was entirely shot in the US, the railway scenes for this version used the Mid-Norfolk Railway, with Dereham station playing the part of High Road station. Mumbai-based production company Reliance Entertainment shot scenes in a coach that remained in the station platform, with the film company then using green-screen methods to add movement later.
