Haider

Audience emotional responses are dominated by the profound sadness and melancholy stemming from the tragic adaptation of Hamlet, set against the backdrop of the Kashmir conflict. High levels of anxiety and fear are evoked by the pervasive political tension and personal danger. Anger is a central emotion, driven by betrayal and the quest for revenge, while empathy is felt for Haider's suffering and the broader human cost of the conflict. The unfolding mystery and revenge plot also generate significant anticipation, and the film's grim realities contribute to a disturbing emotional experience.
