Besides Meesha’s eerily preserved childhood bedroom, the palace is full of scary artwork. Gaslight is legitimately frightening at times. Only sympathetic, handsome estate manager Kapil (Vikrant Massey) humors Meesha, while warning her to be careful of Rukmani and her allies. Though Meesha at first thinks that her father is in the house, a series of frightening incidents convince her that Ratan is actually dead - but no one believes her. She gets in her wheelchair and follows him to a remote part of the palace, only to fall down some stairs when she’s startled by a loud noise. But that night, Meesha sees a man she thinks is her father. When she arrives, she’s greeted by Rukmani - now her father’s wife - who assures the young woman that Ratan is away on a work emergency and will return in a few days. Years later, Meesha receives a surprise letter from her father asking her to come home for a visit. Meesha and her mother moved away, but Mom never got over the breakup and killed herself. Her childhood in the family’s ancestral palace was happy until Ratan had an affair with Rukmani (Chitrangda Singh). Meesha (Sara Ali Khan) hasn’t seen her father Ratan Singh Gaikwad since she was a little girl, before the accident that left Meesha unable to walk. The creepy but unambitious mystery does just enough to keep viewers hooked until the end. A young woman returns home to mend her relationship with her estranged father, only to find him missing in Gaslight.
