“Darr toh bahut dekha hoga, ab khauf mehsoos karne ke liye taiyaar ho jaaiye! Presenting Jaani Dushman – Darr Ke Aage Maut Hai!” makers wrote on Instagram.

‘Bhay – The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery’ director Arshad Syed, along with Robbie Grewal, who was associated with its creative vision, comes on board as creative producer. Internationally acclaimed action and stunt specialist Peter Pedrero is also joining the team, with his credits including ‘Harry Potter’, ‘Fast & Furious’, ‘The Expendables’, ‘Game of Thrones’ and ‘The Conjuring’.

While the horror elements and action are expected to drive the film’s cinematic scale, its emotional core will be a mother-daughter relationship, layered with buried family secrets and supernatural occurrences. The makers are looking to develop the property as a franchise, with the first instalment introducing audiences to its central world.

An ambitious theatrical horror franchise backed by Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series Films and Prabhleen Sandhu’s Almighty Motion Picture, the film is scheduled to release in 2027. (ANI)
