Deepak Kumar Mishra and Arunabh Kumar direct the film

'Vvan: Force of the Forrest' has been directed by Deepak Kumar Mishra and Arunabh Kumar. The film presents a rational urban man confronting supernatural forces after challenging the traditions of his ancestral village.ETimes' review of the film reads, "The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest has the ingredients of a more layered fantasy thriller but never brings them together consistently. Its atmosphere, visual ambition and intriguing premise work in its favour, while rushed character development and an increasingly conventional supernatural conflict limit its impact. What could have been a nuanced tale about faith, greed, development and the consequences of disturbing nature instead becomes a moderately engaging supernatural adventure that only partially fulfils the potential of its premise.
