Summary
Two small-town men are hired to kidnap brides in a wedding-abduction racket and snatch a young woman named Roohi, only to discover she is possessed by a witch-spirit called Mudiyapairi. Holed up in an abandoned factory, one of them falls for Roohi while the other falls for the spirit inhabiting her, forcing a strange love triangle and a choice about whether to exorcise the entity or let her marry herself.
Roohi is a 2021 comedy, drama and horror film.
7,929 other films from the 2020s form the cohort it is ranked inside. The calibrated figure is built from 218 reviewers whose rating history varies enough to place their own average. A broader pool of 253 reviewers with two or more reviews feeds the raw-average track instead.
How the score was built
We compare the reviewers of this title against every other title those same people reviewed. Each review is scored relative to the reviewer's own baseline — a 7/10 from a hard grader sits well above their average, while a 7/10 from a generous grader sits below theirs. Every reviewer then counts the same, so the result is a calibrated consensus rather than a raw average.
- Global percentile
- Where Roohi lands against every title we rank.
- In-cohort percentile
- The same comparison narrowed to its cohort — titles of the same format released in the same decade. A 1970s film is judged against 1970s films, not against last year's streaming series. Ranked against Films · 2020s (7,930 titles).
- AI-adjusted percentile
- The same reviewer-normalized score, corrected for how much confidence the sample supports: thin samples are pulled toward the corpus average. Each title keeps the share n / (n + 53) of its measured distance from the average, where n is its calibrated-reviewer count, and the result is ranked on the same scale as the global percentile.53 is the median sample size across everything we rank. Here n is 218.
