The cast also includes Vatsal Sheth, Parvin Dabas, and Pranay Pachauri in significant roles. This eight-episode captivating drama is penned by Gaurav Desai, Raaghav Dar, Chintan Sarda, and Karan Anshuman, with Raaghav Dar as the director.
“Creating Andhera has been one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve encountered,” expressed creator Gaurav Desai.
Desai mentioned his long-standing attraction to horror and the supernatural, making the release of a project in these genres feel surreal.
“The initial goal was to craft something that wasn’t merely frightening, but would linger with you—something that instills a quiet, lasting unease.

He further added: At the core of Andhera lies a narrative that propels everything forward. The suspense, the unexpected turns, the gradual revelations—that’s what I anticipate will captivate viewers. We had a dedicated cast and a team that worked tirelessly to make this universe feel vibrant, innovative, and authentically human.
