Rakkhosh is a Hindi-language psychological thriller movie that was released in 2019. The movie portrays the main lead Sanjay Mishra as an Army officer who has been admitted to a military hospital for psychiatric treatment. The film is directed by Abhay Kumar and produced by Umesh Shukla and Ashish Wagh. The movie focuses on the inner thoughts and psyche of the protagonist as he struggles to separate reality from illusions while undergoing treatment.

The movie begins with the introduction of the protagonist, who is admitted to the military hospital with serious mental issues. The doctors diagnose him with a condition called "Rakkhosh", known in mythology as a demonic creature that is both feared and revered. The viewer is taken on a journey into the mind of the protagonist, as he struggles to come to terms with his condition and reconcile with his past.

Sanjay Mishra gives an outstanding performance as the Army officer who served in the Kargil war. He is haunted by the memory of a soldier who died in his arms, and this trauma has led to his mental breakdown. He is unable to differentiate between what is real and what is imaginary, and this confusion drives the plot of the movie.

Priyanka Bose, who plays Sanjay's wife in the movie, is equally impressive. Her portrayal of a caring wife who supports her husband through his mental health struggles is realistic and touching. Tannishtha Chatterjee plays the role of a senior psychiatrist at the military hospital, who is tasked with treating the protagonist. She is calm, composed, and a pillar of strength in the face of the protagonist's mental turmoil.

The movie is set in the backdrop of a military hospital, and the director has done an excellent job of creating an eerie, almost claustrophobic atmosphere. The use of dim lighting and stark interiors adds to the sense of unease experienced by the protagonist. The viewer is always kept guessing about what is real and what is imaginary, as the movie often blurs the lines between the two.

The director has also made use of flashbacks to provide context to the events that led to the protagonist's mental breakdown. These flashbacks are woven seamlessly into the narrative, adding to the audience's understanding of the character's motivations.

The movie touches upon various themes, including PTSD, mental health stigmatization, and the impact of traumatic events on the human psyche. It also raises questions about the role of the military in treating mental health issues and the need for greater awareness about mental health in society.

Overall, Rakkhosh is a must-watch for anyone who enjoys psychological thrillers. The movie is well-crafted, and the performances by the lead actors are outstanding. The film would appeal to those who prefer their movies to be thought-provoking and emotionally engaging. It is a haunting and unforgettable cinematic experience that will stay with the viewer long after the end credits roll.

Rakkhosh is a 2019 horror movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 55 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.8.
