Murder 2 is not just about sex; it is also about gore and serial killing. Producers Mukesh and Mahesh Bhatt, director Mohit Suri and writer Shagufta Rafique have decided to take the gore story to a level that has not been seen before in Indian cinema. Says Suri, “The film is set in Goa and unfolds around Christmas and New Year, the peak tourist season. Milling crowds make it impossible for the authorities to keep tabs on everyone and everything.”
The film has a serial killer on the loose who kills women. Mohit says, , “We have incorporated several real-life incidents like women’s bodies being found on Goa’s beaches as well as the Nithari killings which rocked Noida, when discovered in 2007.” The script writer says, “The murderer is the suspense angle of the film. Murder 2 is pronounced with a pathological killer at work.”
