Raat Akeli Hai is a Hindi-language crime thriller film directed by Honey Trehan and released on Netflix in 2020. The film stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui as Jatil Yadav, a small-town police officer who is tasked with investigating the murder of a wealthy landlord named Raghubeer Singh. The investigation takes place in a rural area of North India and involves interrogating members of Singh's suspicious family, all of whom have secrets and motives that emerge throughout the film.
As Jatil delves deeper into the case, he begins to uncover a web of lies and deception that lead him to some unexpected places. Meanwhile, he also grapples with his own personal conflicts, particularly as his feelings for Singh's widow Radha (played by Radhika Apte) grow stronger.
The film has been praised for its tightly woven plot, strong performances (particularly by Siddiqui and Apte), and atmospheric use of setting and music. It explores various themes related to power, corruption, gender dynamics, and the complexities of human relationships, all within the context of a suspenseful whodunit.
