Just when you thought horror movies were based on real-life incidents and spine-chilling stories, "Raaz - The Mystery Continues", a take-off from 2002 hit "Raaz", is inspired from Sufi saint Kabir's couplet.

"The story is weaved around saint Kabir's idiom 'Bura jo dekhan main chala, bura na milya koi; jo dil khoja apna, ta mujh sa bura na koi,' meaning that the evil is within and that is the message of the film," screenwriter for the film Shagufta Rafique told.

Directed by Mohit Suri, the film has Kangana Ranaut, Emraan Hashmi and Adhyayan Suman in the lead. The film is slated for release Jan 23.
