Murder 2

Murder 2 is a 2011 Indian psychological horror-slasher film. It is the second installment in the Murder film series and the quasi-sequel to the 2004 film, Murder. It stars Emraan Hashmi, Jacqueline Fernandez and Prashant Narayanan and features Sulagna Panigrahi. Directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Mukesh Bhatt, the film released on 8 July 2011. The theatrical trailer of the film was revealed on 1 June 2011 and also in cinemas with Ready. It was the second film in a series of quasi-sequels released under the Bhatt Banner including Raaz – The Mystery Continues, Jannat 2, Jism 2, Raaz 3D and 1920: Evil Returns, each of which had nothing to do with their respective prequels, but somehow fell into the same genre following a similar story. The film did well at the box office and was declared a "blockbuster" by Box Office India. It is one of the highest grossing Bollywood films of 2011. The movie is based on the 2008 South Korean movie The Chaser. The film's antagonist's role was very similar to that of the 1991 Academy Award Winner The Silence of the Lambs.
