In the 90s, the Ramsay Brothers were a name to reckon with in the horror genre. Now, the renowned production house is making a return with Ramsay’s Bandh Darwaze Ke Peeche on ALTT. Actor Aarya Babbar plays a pivotal character in the series. His character, Anurag, returns home from abroad with plans to develop a residential complex in place of his ancestral haveli.
Sharing more about his role and preparation, Aarya says, “I really enjoyed it; it was a lot of fun shooting with the co-actors. Let me confess—I am scared of watching horror content. I can’t even watch horror movies on TV or in cinemas, nor can I listen to horror stories. So, as an actor, it was a challenge to be part of this project and convey emotions I couldn’t bear to watch. I took it as a challenge to make the audience believe.”
Aarya adds, “When I heard about Ramsay’s Bandh Darwaze Ke Peeche, I was excited because the Ramsay Brothers are legends in the horror genre. Growing up, I watched their films, and they really know how to create the perfect eerie atmosphere. Being part of such a project is an honor, and I’m thrilled to bring that classic horror feel to a new audience. I’m filled with gratitude for this project. Thanks to the makers, I get to explore horror content on camera.”
Aarya also shares, “People might assume that just because it’s by the Ramsay Brothers, it’s going to be a typical horror project. But this show has a very fresh take, and I think audiences are going to love it. Hopefully, it will become a cult horror classic, maybe even signaling the comeback of the horror genre.”
When asked about his preparation for the role, Aarya says, “Preparing for a horror film is very different from other genres. You have to mentally prepare yourself to be in dark, creepy places for long hours. For Ramsay’s Bandh Darwaze Ke Peeche, I worked on my expressions and reactions because, in horror, it’s all about how you convey fear and suspense to the audience. The Ramsay Brothers guided us perfectly, and the sets had that classic spooky vibe, which helped a lot. I’m looking forward to some great feedback from the audience.”
