Shaitaan plot
ABP review of the film reads as, "When the trailer of 'Shaitaan' dropped, it created quite a stir, hinting at a potentially sensational film. What's in store for us with Madhavan's latest venture? How will Ajay save his family? While this film is a remake of the 2023 Gujarati film 'Vash', it might not have been widely seen by Hindi audiences, hence the excitement brewing since the trailer release. The first half of the film is remarkable, gripping you to your seat as Madhavan shakes things up. However, as the story progresses towards the end, things seem to falter."
