The Hindi horror series ‘Adhura’ will debut on Amazon Prime Video on July 7, the streaming service announced yesterday.

Rasika Dugal, Ishwak Singh, Shrenik Arora and Poojan Chhabra are all featured in the show, which is dubbed as a “gripping and suspenseful journey into the supernatural realm”.

According to PTI, Ananya Banerjee co-wrote and directed the seven-part series with Gauravv K Chawla.

Producing credit goes to Emmay Entertainment’s Monisha Advani, Madhu Bhojwani, and Nikkhil Advani.

‘Adhura’, a film about guilt, remorse, and revenge, follows the students and faculty of a prestigious boarding school as secrets and terrifying events plague them in two timelines, 2022 and 2007.

“What starts as a nostalgic reunion, turns sinister when Adhiraj Jaisingh (Ishwak Singh) encounters Vedant Malik (Shrenik Arora), a troubled 10-year-old student. As the past and present collide, a dark secret threatens to emerge, linking Adhiraj to Vedant,” the official plotline read.

Aparna Purohit, head of India Originals, Prime Video, said she is confident that ‘Adhura’ will engage, provoke and enthrall its subscribers.

“‘Adhura’ is a complex, layered, and immersive world where once-familiar corridors and hallways become a labyrinth of fear and uncertainty. Supernatural horror is an extremely popular genre not just in India but across the world, so we are extremely excited to partner with Nikkhil Advani once again, in a genre that neither Emmay Entertainment nor Prime Video has attempted before,” she said.

Advani said he is excited to partner with Prime Video after his 2021 medical drama ‘Mumbai Diaries 26/11’.

“This series explores the depths of human emotions, showcasing the complexity of relationships. With every twist and turn, it will captivate and leave the viewers yearning for more. It was wonderful working with the ensemble cast, especially Shrenik Arora, who, I am sure will come out as a surprise package,” he added.

 ‘Adhura’ also stars Rahul Dev, Zoa Morani, Rijul Ray, Sahil Salathia, Aru Krishansh Vera, KC Shankar and Jaimini Pathak.
