Amazon Prime’s Indian Horror Movie ‘Chhorii’ Gets a Sequel
From T-Series, CryptTV, and Abundantia Entertainment comes the Indian horror movie Chhorii, which was released globally on Amazon Prime Video over Thanksgiving weekend. It performed well enough that a sequel has been ordered, Deadline reports.
In the film…
“Set deep in the heartlands, Chhorii is the story of a modern, young couple, Sakshi (Nushrratt Bharuccha) and Hemant. Sakshi is eight months pregnant with her first child when the couple, forced out of their home, escapes from the city and seeks refuge in a house located deep inside sugarcane fields. The house is inhabited by an old couple who seem to know more than they tell. Unknown to Sakshi, the house and the fields are ridden with dark secrets that start unravelling as the story unfolds, posing a threat to Sakshi and her unborn child.
“Even as Sakshi tries to save herself and her unborn baby, scary sightings of three mysterious kids and a charred monster coupled with an eerie lullaby, emanating from an old transistor, wreak havoc with her sanity. Will Sakshi be able to save herself? Will she be able to protect her unborn child? Sakshi’s quest to find the answers to these questions and escape from the horrors takes us on a journey that deals with scares, both normal and paranormal.”
Star Nushrratt Bharuccha and director Vishal Furia will return for the sequel, which will start where the original ended, with Sakshi (Bharuccha) picking up the pieces of her traumatic experience in the sugar cane fields.
Chhorii is a remake of his own Marathi-language horror Lapachhapi.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
