The story follows Maya, a single mother who must protect her six-year-old daughter, Nia, from the vengeful spirit of her deceased husband, Abhay. As Nia begins talking to her "dead father," the lines between reality and the supernatural blur, leading to a chilling struggle for Nia's soul. Where to Watch Legally
Instead, I suggest you explore legitimate platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, or ZEE5, which may offer "Aatma" for streaming or purchase.
Directed by Suparn Verma, Aatma tells the story of Maya (Bipasha Basu), a single mother trying to protect her young daughter from the ghost of her deceased, abusive husband, Abhay (Irrfan Khan). Unlike typical Bollywood horror where ghosts throw vases and scream, Abhay’s ghost is chillingly intelligent. He doesn't want to kill his family; he wants to possess them. The film blurs the line between psychological paranoia and supernatural reality, leaving the audience questioning if the threat is real or a figment of Maya’s trauma.
This is a psychological horror film starring Bipasha Basu and Nawazuddin Siddiqui .
