The movie has taken YouTube by storm because of its spine-chilling content and Bipasha and Karan’s sizzling chemistry and has emerged as the undisputed winner in the world of horror.

While Priyanka Chopra tweeted that she is “definitely watching Alone“, ace filmmaker Karan Johar has found the trailer very “scary and intriguing”. Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan “was blown away” by the trailer and he feels that it’s “horror with elegance”. Abhishek Bachchan found the trailer “scary as hell” and he also tweeted that he would never dare to meet Bipasha Basu Alone.

However, all hell breaks loose when one of the twins dies under mysterious circumstances and comes back to haunt her sister.
Directed by Bhushan Patel, Alone has been produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak, Abhishek Pathak, Pradeep Agarwal and Prashant Sharma and is slated to release on January 16.
