A remake of the hit Marathi horror film, Lapachhapi (translated as ‘Hide and Seek’), Chhorrii looks intriguing from its motion poster. It features a pregnant woman whose face is hidden behind a veil. In the background, we hear a girl singing mysteriously, and a child laughing. Besides Nushratt, the film also stars Mita Vashisht, Rajesh Jais, Saurabh Goyal, and Yaanea Bharadwaj.

The 2017 Marathi film Lapachhapi chronicled the story of a pregnant woman (Pooja Sawant) and her husband (Vikram Gaikwad). They become the victims of age-old societal beliefs and practices that give rise to some chilling tales. The film received a positive response from film critics and received many accolades. It was premiered at the London International Film Festival.
