Forensic, that released in 2020, opened to rave reviews from the critics and the audience alike. The remake is a part of Mini Flims’ Mansi Bagla’s acquisition of three super hit South Indian remakes. The original was based on a psychotic murderer and how he sets out on a killing spree. Samuel, a medico-legal advisor, uses his forensic skills to unravel the truth behind the heinous deeds.
