The murder plan goes well but the victim's body gets lost which gives jitters to the wives and after some suspenseful moments, the case gets solved.
Highlights:
- A tough and solid screenplay that keeps us guessing till the very end of the film sets up the premise for an ideal suspense thriller and lives up to it.
- The performances of the two wives - the calm and collected first & the weak and guilt ridden second.
- The role of the police interrogator and the twists that come towards the end.
