An earlier report had spoken about Betaal as, “A remote village becomes the theatre of a breathless battle when a two-century-old Betaal, a British Indian Army officer, and his battalion of zombie redcoats are unleashed. With Indian police pitted against the undead army, hapless villagers are trapped in a horrific, edge-of-your-seat conflict.”

Betaal was originally announced in July last year, as one of five new series. It will be the fifth original series from India in 2020. Betaal is written and directed by Patrick Graham — he had also helmed Netflix’s “Ghoul” starring Radhika Apte. Co-directed by Nikhil Mahajan.

The series also features, Jitendra Joshi, Siddharth Menon, Manjiri Pupala, Syna Anand and Suchitra Pillai. The horror thriller will premiere on May 24, 2020.
