You cannot write about Night Padosan without praising its sound design. In a market saturated with loud background scores, this film uses silence as its weapon. The "tap tap" code evolves throughout the film. When Rohan finally figures out the Morse code (Tap = ".", Long scrape = "-"), the message spells out: "HE IS BEHIND YOU" . At that exact moment, the film cuts to the shadowy figure. The lack of a jump scare sound (just pure, dead air) makes audiences scream louder than any explosion.
