Plot

Gautam and Sandhya are a newly married couple who reside in a flat in a gated community. Gautam was a software engineer by profession whereas Sandhya was a housemaker. One day Gautam calls the police while he is in Bengaluru and files a missing report that his wife is missing from Hyderabad. ACP Shraddha was given the charge of the case, she suspects that Gautam has murdered his wife. A few days later another suicide case came up, Rishi, Gautam’s neighbor jumped off the building.  ACP Shraddha strongly suspects some links between these two cases. Why would Gautam murder his wife? Is there any link between these two cases? The rest of the story revolves around it. The story also surprises with a thrilling climax in the last 20 minutes.

Star performance

Satyam Rajesh has excellently carried himself as a staunch and admiring husband throughout the movie. His depiction was refined, with his attitude and behavior flawlessly blending into the narrative, adding detail to the story. Megha Chowdhary also delivers a convincing redemption as Satyam’s wife. She did an engaging act of portraying a caring and loving wife together with an innocent and naïve village girl. Ester Nornah assimilates her character as a police officer with flair, her look and stance perfectly suited as a daring and responsible cop. The rest of the cast did justice to their characters with impressive and efficient dialogue, delivering the suspense and thrill that the movie aims to convey.

Analysis

Those who appreciate a slow-burn thriller that appreciates tone and clarity over action should look out for Tenant. Although the movie is unnecessarily stretched, slowed, and fails to create much required tensity despite eventually manages to move us to tears. The climax of the last 20 minutes is well-executed and delivers the necessary disturbance, impact, and resolution to satisfy the viewers. The whole first half of the movie is staunched to exhibit the past traumas of the leading couple making the past half relatively unengaging and boring. In this movie music is something that you can enjoy. but the background score could have been better to avoid boredom. Chiefly, the plot also conveys a relevant social message related to women's safety, but the presentation fails to appreciate the valuable message.

What’s There?

  • Perfect climax
  • Appropriate cast

What’s Not There?

  • Movie fails to engage the viewers
  • Background score could be better

Verdict

Overall, the movie is average with a basic storyline, except for the engaging and out-of-the-box climax. If you're in the mood for a thriller suspense movie, this one is a good choice, but be prepared for a slow-moving story.
