90 Ghanta ("90 Hours") is a 2008 Bengali psycho-thriller film directed by Sougata Roy Burman.[2][3] The film was produced by Morpheus Media Ventures.[4]
Plot[edit]
This film has a strikingly different storyline. It tells the tale of George (Tota Roy Choudhury), Rishin (Jisshu Sengupta) and his wife Mayuri (Swastika Mukherjee). When George takes up a contract killing assignment from Rishin, he doesn't know his target and client are the same person. Rishin is a schizophrenic who wants himself dead. On realising this, George is torn between his professional ethics and a genuine concern for a fellow human being. Things get complicated when George comes to know Rishin's wife Mayuri is his ex-girlfriend. Mayuri tries to convince him against killing her husband. Meanwhile, George and Rishin have also bonded over a common passion, music. The film explores the dynamics of this complex scenario.

Reception[edit]
Shoma from Sifymovies said that 90 Hours is filled with chills and thrills. He went on to say that the film is "slickly made" with some outstanding performances.[3] A different opinion from the telegraph noted that "90 Ghanta has a smart script but falls short of becoming dark, sinister and unsettling due to poor directorial skills."[2]
