Pull the Thread | |
| Andhadhun / int_109dbb51 | comment |
Pull the Thread: Several people who suspect Akash of being sighted attempt to expose/test him—for instance the neighbor kid tries to catch him using his eyesight at home and Manohar throws a small knife at him to see if he flinches or dodges it. Simi finally succeeds by pulling a gun on him, which scares him and makes him drop the charade. | |

Daydream Surprise | |
| Andhadhun / int_118a41d5 | comment |
Daydream Surprise: The daydream being Akash protesting against the prepared statement the police asks him to sign, instead saying that he's not blind and revealing everything that happened. After the daydream is over, he does indeed sign the statement. | |

Phoney Call: Simi pretends to call Mr. Sinha when Akash shows up at their apartment to hide that he's already dead. Akash spots the dead body anyway, since he's only faking his blindness. | |

The Sociopath | |
| Andhadhun / int_19851b86 | comment |
The Sociopath: Simi has no problems framing an innocent man for murder, murdering her neighbor, and blinding Akash to save her own skin. She gets upset with Manohar for bringing his gun to their tryst—not because it resulted in her husband's death, but because his death caused them a lot of trouble. When Akash calls her out on murdering Mrs. D'Sa in cold blood, she rhetorically asks whether he and the people helping him are a bunch of saints and starts trying to justify herself. She deceives Sophie into thinking Akash cheated on her, breaking her heart and driving a wedge between them for no apparent reason besides pettiness. When she and Akash find themselves in a pickle, she comes up with a plan to cooperate and tries to kill him when he has helped her and is no longer useful to her. In short, she lies, manipulates, and double-crosses people unhesitatingly when it suits her purposes, only looks out for herself, is wantonly cruel, and shows no remorse for any of her crimes including murder. | |

| Andhadhun / int_1c445e86 | comment |
Poor Communication Kills: Akash calls Sophie after Simi has blinded him, attempting to explain the situation. Sophie refuses to listen, having found out that he was faking his blindness and mistakenly believing that he was sleeping with Simi. This leaves Akash completely isolated with no one to trust or turn to. | |

Spanner in the Works: Mrs. D'Sa witnessing the comings and goings at the Sinhas' apartment and telling the police results in both Simi and Manohar's plan (simply framing an innocent man and then moving on) and Akash's plan (feigning ignorance to avoid putting himself in danger) being thrown off course. Simi's attempts to course-correct further complicate matters. | |

In addition, she says that she would be able to identify the unknown man who entered first (Manohar), which would reveal the truth. Consequently, Simi decides to kill her before she can go on record. Akash knowing about the murder of Mrs. D'Sa. Simi decides to ruin his credibility as a witness by blinding him for real. Manohar decides that that isn't enough, and goes to kill him instead. | |

It Gets Easier | |
| Andhadhun / int_a3673c4c | comment |
It Gets Easier: Simmi is shown distraught after Pramod's death. But she nevertheless has no issues committing or attempting more murders to protect herself and is evil enough by the end to try to kill Akash even though he is of no danger to her. Or so it seems... | |

Imagine Spot: While the police is asking Akash to sign a statement (which he knows is false), Akash imagines suddenly standing up and telling everyone the truth. | |

Dramatic Irony | |
| Andhadhun / int_ab5eea65 | comment |
Dramatic Irony: A lot of the things characters do and say based on the belief that Akash is blind qualify, but especially Simi and Manohar's attempts to cover up the crime scene without tipping off Akash, which is heavily Played for Drama. | |

Oh, Crap!: Akash has this reaction when he goes to the police station to report the murder of Mr. Sinha, only to discover that the man he saw in Sinha's apartment is a police inspector working there. He quickly comes up with an alternative crime to report to avoid arousing suspicion. | |

Irony | |
| Andhadhun / int_c335b9ec | comment |
Irony: Sophie believes Akash to be blind. She then finds out that he was only faking it from the kid living next door to him... at the same time as he's blinded for real by Simi. Her finding out about his deceit thus doesn't result in her finding out the truth, but in her substituting one mistaken belief for the opposite one. | |

Weapon for Intimidation: Simi uses a fake gun to intimidate Akash. In an interesting variation, the main reason she wanted to intimidate him was to force him to reveal that he wasn't actually blind. | |

A Deadly Affair: Simi and Manohar, who are both married to other people, have an affair. When Simi's husband Mr. Sinha finds out about the affair, he ends up dead. Since we only see the aftermath, it is unclear how he died—whether he was killed by Simi or Manohar, or by himself, or if it was accidental. | |
