Kaun (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kaun (Hindi: कौन, meaning Who's there) is a 1999 Hindi film by Ram Gopal Verma starring Urmila Matondkar. The movie revolves around characters in a house when they discover that one of them is a murderer.
Written by Anurag Kashyap, the film also features Manoj Bajpai as a bumbling white colar worker and Sushant Singh as a thief. 'Kaun' was an inventively minimalistic film using only one set and a cast of three actors (excluding the dead body discovered on the third floor of the house and a brief appearance of a room full of silent, motionless extras). The only costume change occurs in the film's final scene when Urmila Matondkar reappears the following morning.
Also known as: Evaru (Telugu title) Thriller (English title)
Trivia: Sushant Singh initially tries to pass himself off as a police inspector named Qureshi. Ram Gopal Varma later reprised the name in his 2003 film Bhoot when Nana Patekar played a character named Inspector Liyaqat Qureshi.
