After the success of Kaafir, *ZEE5* announces its next women-centric story *Bhram*, a psychological thriller starring *Kalki Koechlin*. The eight-episode series written by *K Hari Kumar* and directed by *Sangeeth Sivan* goes on floors this week.

Bhram is the story of a novelist essayed by Kalki,  who is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and how she goes through the many eccentric emotions while pursuing a story. The series also has an eclectic cast comprising Bhumika Chawla, Sanjay Suri, Eijaz Khan, Omkar Kapoor amongst others. The first schedule of the shoot will take place in Shimla.

*Kalki Koechlin* said, “Bhram is an intriguing  story and the character I essay is really complex. I heard the script and then kept thinking about it for days.  It is almost frightening how the human mind works. I am looking forward to the shoot and the release on ZEE5.”

*Director Sangeeth Sivan says*, “Bhram is a thriller where the story revolves around a novelist who suffers from PTSD. It is a tight script, beautifully nuanced and I hope we are able to translate this on screen. Kalki is a powerful actor and it is amazing how she intently listens and pays attention to every small detail during workshop and narration sessions. The journey has started and I am excited and looking forward for audiences to catch it on ZEE5.”

Commenting on the announcement, *Aparna Acharekar, Programming Head, ZEE5 India* said, “Viewers are constantly looking for engaging stories and we have received a fantastic response for thrillers on our platform. We are further investing into this genre across languages for our audiences. Bhram is an alluring story and the perfect binge-watching content. The show starring Kalki Koechlin goes on floor and we are looking forward to release it on the platform soon.”
