As Halloween approaches, it seems that zombies are making their way from Hollywood to Bollywood. After dominating the silver screen in the West, these undead creatures are now set to terrorize the streets of Mumbai in the upcoming film Pralay. Directed by Jai Mehta and set for a 2027 release, this ambitious project aims to be India's most comprehensive zombie film yet.
Produced by Ananya Birla's Birla Studios, Hansal Mehta and Sahil Saigal's True Story Films, and Ranveer Singh's Maa Kasam Films, Pralay promises to bring a fresh perspective to the undead genre. The film will be set against the backdrop of Mumbai as humanity battles for survival against an army of zombies.
With Ranveer Singh taking on the lead role, the cast also includes Kalyani Priyadarshan, debuting in Bollywood alongside Kunal Kemmu and Vir Das. The film's ambitious scope and the involvement of some of the industry's biggest names signal a growing fascination with zombies in India's entertainment capital.
While Bollywood has previously experimented with zombie-related content, Pralay appears to be the most high-profile attempt yet to bring these mythological monsters to life on the big screen.
