Ghoul (Netflix)

Sacred Games was Netflix’s first Indian series, and their second original series was Ghoul starring Radhika Apte in the lead role. It is clearly one of the best horror series made in India. There are many jumps scares in it and Apte’s performance was amazing in the series.

Bhram (Zee5)

There’s no doubt that Kalki Koechlin is one of the most talented actresses we have in the industry. She featured in Zee5’s horror series titled Bhram and impressed one and all with her performance in it. Directed by Sangeeth Sivan, Bhram has many scenes that will scare you and keep you on the edge of the seat.

Parvati, originally portrayed by Shefali Chowdhury in the films, is one of the few explicitly Indian characters in the Harry Potter universe. The decision to cast someone with no clear Indian heritage has led to heated discussions across platforms like Reddit and X, with fans calling out what they perceive as performative inclusivity.
