The new director’s film is of course linked to his father’s production company. M. Night Shyamalan and Ashwin Raja’s Blinding Edge Pictures company will produce in association with Nimitt Mankad of Inimitable Pictures with Jo Homewood set to executive produce.
The logline for the film says, “Mina, a 28-year-old artist stranded in the vast, untouched forest of western Ireland. When Mina finds refuge, she unwittingly becomes trapped with three strangers who are watched and stalked by a mysterious creature every night .”
M Night and his wife Bhavna Vaswani have created children who love art very much.

The director and his wife share three girls. Saleka is 26 years old and an R&B singer. Ishana is the middle sister and they have a younger sister named Shivani. The girls always support each other so it was only fitting that Ishana helped her father direct Saleka’s 2020 music video for “Mr. extraordinary”
He shared with Just Jared at that time, how his brother and father actually showed up and helped him. “My sister Ishana, my father and I were fascinated by the idea of a woman whose partner was always semi-present – almost like a ghost. I kept coming back to the image of this couple living in a house that was abandoned and crumbling around them.
The video, just like his father’s film haunts and deals with twists and turns that you don’t always get from music videos.
