Sonakshi Sinha is back — and this time, she’s not playing safe. She’s diving headfirst into a haunting maze of crime, suspense, and something supernatural. The much-anticipated trailer of her upcoming thriller “Nikita Roy and The Book of Darkness” just dropped, and let’s just say — it’s not for the faint of heart.
In this eerie, spine-chilling ride, Sonakshi takes on a terrifying journey to unmask a godman. And no, this isn’t your regular “baba behind bars” drama. It’s layered, loaded with mystery, and powered by a face-off you didn’t see coming — Sonakshi Sinha vs Paresh Rawal.
“Do You Believe in Ghosts?”: The Trailer Sets the Mood
The trailer opens with Sonakshi’s voice echoing in the dark: “Do you believe in ghosts?” And just like that, the vibe shifts. A flickering torch. Muffled chants. A shadow darting through the darkness. You’re hooked.

Next up — enter Paresh Rawal, playing a revered spiritual leader named Amardev, who seems to be more than just a man of faith. Devotees shout “Amardev Amar Rahe!” as Rawal’s calm yet chilling aura sets the tone for the thriller’s darker undercurrents.
And then comes the twist — Sonakshi, playing an investigator, isn’t buying any of it. She’s digging deep into unexplained disappearances, supernatural whispers, and Amardev’s shady past.
A Fresh Flavor of Horror-Thriller Masala
Directed by Kush S. Sinha (yes, Sonakshi’s brother), Nikita Roy brings a new flavor to the Bollywood horror-thriller genre — a rare cocktail of investigative drama, myth, horror, and psychological intrigue.
Gone are the clichés. This isn’t about jump scares and cheesy ghosts. It’s about unsettling truths, a web of half-lies, and a woman who’s ready to risk everything for the whole truth.
The visuals? Gritty and grand. The background score builds the tension like a ticking bomb. And the cinematography? Let’s just say some shots will stay with you — especially if you watch this trailer alone at night.
Paresh Rawal Returns to His Dark Side
We’ve seen him make us laugh. But in Nikita Roy, Paresh Rawal flips the switch. He’s cold, manipulative, and might just be the monster behind the mask. It’s a powerful return to his villainous roots — think of his dark roles in Tamanna or Raman Raghav. Goosebumps? Guaranteed.
Matching his intensity is Sonakshi, who seems to have found her groove in bold, layered roles (Dahaad fans, you know the vibe). She’s sharp, focused, and fearless — the kind of female lead Hindi thrillers need more of.
Arjun Rampal & Suhail Nayyar Add More Firepower
The cast doesn’t stop at these two. Arjun Rampal and Suhail Nayyar step in with key roles that are still under wraps — but judging by the trailer’s pacing and mood, they’re likely to either complicate the investigation or deepen the horror. Either way, their presence adds more masala to the already simmering pot.
Fan Reactions? Total Dhamaka
The trailer has already stirred major buzz online. Fans are loving Sonakshi’s transformation, calling her “Bollywood’s new horror queen.” Meanwhile, Paresh Rawal’s entry is getting labeled as “vintage Rawal, with a sinister twist.” The background music, that chilling line about truth and half-truths, and the cryptic symbols flashing onscreen? Enough to give any horror buff goosebumps.

Will “Nikita Roy” Redefine Bollywood Horror?
While Bollywood has had its fair share of horror attempts, very few manage to blend supernatural elements with real-world mystery successfully. Nikita Roy might just be that rare dhamakedaar flick that delivers both thrills and thought.
So, if you’re someone who enjoys decoding creepy clues, loves a good villain reveal, and misses the old-school tension that builds up slow but hits hard — this one’s for you.
Mark your calendars, thrill-seekers. Because Sonakshi and Paresh are ready to play mind games, and this time, truth might be scarier than fiction.
