'So Long Valley' movie review: Tridha Choudhury-Akanksha Puri-Vikram Kochhar deliver impactful performances in Man Singh's gripping thriller

Star cast: Tridha Choudhury, Akanksha Puri, Vikram Kochhar, Man Singh, Alisha Parveen

Director: Man Singh

‘So Long Valley’, directed by Man Singh, is one of the year’s most anticipated suspense/ crime thrillers. It revisits the concept of anxiety in a hostage situation while being tense and on the verge of excitement. It is filmed in the stunning city of Manali.

The movie starts with a scared girl, who arrives at the Manali police station in search of her sister, who left from Shimla to Manali hours ago but never reached home. A clue emerges as police in Shimla and Manali start their search: a cab driver is suspected. However, they discover something shocking as the cops close in and the inquiry continues. Was there anything more dark going on here, or was the girl’s sister a victim? Additionally, who is in charge? You have to see the movie to find out the answers to these questions.

The performance of actress Tridha Choudhury is superb. Her excellent effort has impressed the audience. In addition to her, Akanksha Puri is another highlight of the movie. Her part in the movie has been well justified. Actor-director Man Singh has made a significant impact and has a very engaging on-screen persona. Actors Vikram Kochhar and Alisha Parveen did a fantastic job, and their organic acting added to the film’s attractiveness.
