The cast of the upcoming horror thriller 'Help', starring Bobby Deol and Mugdha Godse, recently wrapped shooting the final schedule and are 'extremely excited' about it's release 'in the very near future'.

Directed by debutant director Rajeev Virani and Produced by Sanjay Ahluwalia & Vinay Choksey of Rupali Aum Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., the film was shot in Mauritius and Mumbai for a schedule of 45 days spread over a period of 8 months.

Speaking about his role in the film, Bobby said, "The film has been beautifully shot and I must say it's one the finest horror films that the audience will see. It's chilling, gruesome and the kind of horror which gives you Goosebumps.

'Help will take the horror genre in India to another level. My character in the film is extremely well defined and I am sure people will like the new Bobby in the film," he said.

According to makers, 'Help' is a supernatural horror that draws upon the story of a malevolent spirit that refuses to leave the human world.

Bobby Deol plays the protagonist Vic who is a successful horror film director in Bollywood and is married to Pia played by Mugdha Godse. Pia and Vic who are having marital problems and in the midst of their troubled marriage, they have to rush Mauritus to visit Pia's ailing father. But something "dark that remains still, hidden and silent" in the old house where Pia grew up and "all it wants wants to do is to strike again"

'Very excited' about her role, Mugdha, said, "I have done glamorous roles as well as de-glam roles in the past but with 'Help' you will see me in a role which is much more acting oriented."

Calling it a 'role of a lifetime' the she says she 'had to prepare really hard' to inhabit the skin of the character.

She said, 'My character had to be really authentic and I must admit that it was a spooky experience too as the makeup was such that it gave me the jitters.'

'The prosthetic makeup for me and the other characters in the film has been done by Vikram Gaikwad, who is reknowned for his makeup for films like 3 Idiots, Kaminey, Ishqiya, Delhi 6 etc.' she added.

Mugdha said she hope that once the audience has watched Help they will agree that it is 'as authentic as can be' and see that 'we have not comprised an iota when it comes to quality'.

'Help' being billed by the makers 'as one of the scariest horror films of all times by the people who have seen the rushes of the film' is expected to release in the coming months.
