What happens

Snegithiye (transl. Oh female friend!) is a 2000 Indian Tamil-language mystery thriller film directed by Priyadarshan. The film notably features only female characters, played by Tabu, Jyothika, Sharbani Mukherjee and Ishitta Arun. This is the latest Tamil film of Tabu till date. Music was composed by Vidyasagar. The film, released in 2000, proved to be an average grosser at the box office but bagged positive reviews from critics. Originally planned to be made as a multilingual, in Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi, the film was released first in Tamil, while the Malayalam version, Raakilipattu (transl. Rock music), as well as the Hindi dubbed version of the Malayalam version, Friendship were released seven years later. The film's story is loosely based on the 1999 Marathi film Bindhaast. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
