Karanvir Malhotra, Prajakta Koli starrer Andhera to stream on Prime Video from August 14

Andhera is directed by Raaghav Dar and written by Gaurav Desai, Raaghav Dar, Chintan Sarda, and Karan Anshuman.

Prime Video, in partnership with Excel Entertainment, has officially announced the global premiere of its upcoming supernatural horror series Andhera, set to stream exclusively on the platform starting 14 August.

The series boasts a stellar ensemble cast led by Priya Bapat, Karanvir Malhotra, Prajakta Koli, and Surveen Chawla, with Vatsal Sheth, Parvin Dabas, and Pranay Pachauri also playing significant roles.

Andhera is directed by Raaghav Dar and written by Gaurav Desai, Raaghav Dar, Chintan Sarda, and Karan Anshuman. It consists of eight suspenseful episodes. It promises an intense, suspenseful experience by deftly fusing a terrifying investigative drama with supernatural horror.

"Making Andhera has been one of the most fulfilling experiences I’ve had,” shares creator Gaurav Desai. “I’ve always been drawn to horror and the supernatural, so finally putting something out there in these genres feels surreal. From the start, the idea was to create something that wasn’t just scary, but stayed with you—something that made you uneasy in a quiet and lasting way. The real challenge was to tap into a kind of fear that feels raw and primal, and bring that to life on screen while staying connected to the emotional core. At the heart of Andhera, though, it’s the story that drives everything. The tension, the twists, the slow reveals—that’s what I hope will keep people hooked. We had an instinctive and committed cast, and a team that really pushed to make this world feel alive, new, and still very human."

“With Andhera, we wanted to push the boundaries of genre storytelling in India. This isn’t just a supernatural thriller—it’s a layered narrative about fear, power, and the human psyche. Backed by a stellar ensemble and a bold, cinematic vision, the series explores what happens when darkness is not just around us, but within us. We're proud to collaborate with Prime Video to bring this unique story to audiences worldwide.”
