Makers on Mandala Murders
“From the start, our goal with Mandala Murders was to create a world that feels unknown yet grounded — where every truth has layers and every answer leads to more questions,” shares Gopi Puthran, creator and director. “Crafting the tension, weaving in symbolism, and watching this brilliant cast bring it to life has been incredibly rewarding. Partnering with Netflix gave us the scale and vision to bring this layered story to life.”
Director Manan Rawat adds, “Every episode adds another piece to the puzzle – challenging everything you think you know. Vaani, Vaibhav, and Surveen bring a rare blend of raw emotion and intensity with their performances. With Netflix we were able to craft a world that’s as visually compelling as it is emotionally charged — where every frame deepens the suspense, and every character leaves an impact.”
Tanya Bami, Series Head at Netflix adds, “Mandala Murders, our next offering is very exciting series that blends the world of crime and mythology, where every layer reveals something more mysterious and eerie.”
