Betaal, Betāl or Betāla (transl. "Demon") is an Indian zombie horror television series based in a remote village that serves as the battleground between East India Company Army officer Lt. Col John Lynedoch, his battalion of zombie redcoats from the Indian Rebellion of 1857, and the fictional CIPD force. The series is written and directed by Patrick Graham and co-directed by National Award winner, Nikhil Mahajan. Produced by Blumhouse Productions and Red Chillies Entertainment, the series stars Vineet Kumar Singh and Aahana Kumra in significant roles. The series received generally negative reviews, with praise for its performances and the use of mythology and zombie, but criticism for its lack of thrill and editing.
