It may sound a tall claim. But that is what the maker of Marrichettu, Saurabh Usha Narang, is hoping to do.

"I want to scare all," he says about his movie, starring Sushmita Sen and Chakri in the lead and produced by Ramgopal Varma’s Factory.

He says the film does not fall under the horror category. "It is a scary film," he says underlining the operative word.

Saurabh, a handpicked man of Varma, is certain that the film will not be a run of the mill. The film, made as Vastu Shastra in Hindi simultaneously, is expected to give Sushmita Sen a much-needed break.

She has been sensational, says Saurabh. "Sushmita was natural and spontaneous. She did not wear even an inch of make up on her face," he says. The only thing the director could find in her face was fear.

Now can fear win over the fans at the theatres?

Saurabh is not fearful. He is optimistic.
