Abhay (1994 film)

Abhay (The Fearless) is an Indian children's film.^[1]

Synopsis

The Nayaks disregard rumours that the house they have moved into is haunted by the ghost of its former owner Rana. Their three children take delight in these ghost stories and desire to meet the ghost. Meanwhile Rana and his fellow ghost, unhappy with this intrusion, plot to scare the new owners. As the living pit their wits against the ghosts, secrets tumble that will not just shed more light on the ghosts’ pasts, but also show that children are not meek creatures to be cowed down by the fear of the unknown. Directed by famous TV host and actor Annu Kapoor, Abhay stars many known Bollywood faces including Nana Patekar, Benjamin Gelani and Moon Moon Sen and has music by Vishal Bharadwaj.

Awards

The film won Best Children’s Film – Swarna Kamal Award at the 42nd National Film Awards held in 1994 and director Annu Kapoor won the Best Director – V. Shantaram Award.^[1]
