Netflix has dropped the intense first poster of its upcoming mythological-crime thriller Mandala Murders, which is set to premiere on July 25, 2025. Set in the haunting town of Charandaspur, the series delves into a string of ritualistic killings tied to an ancient secret society, unraveling a prophecy rooted in fate and faith.
A Dark Tale of Crime, Myth, and Mystery
The series features a stellar cast, including Vaani Kapoor as detective Rea Thomas, who teams up with Vaibhav Raj Gupta’s Vikram Singh to investigate a chilling pattern of murders. As the duo deciphers occult symbols and follows a trail of bizarre clues, they uncover a conspiracy that blurs the lines between religion, madness, and destiny.
In the newly released poster, Vaani Kapoor appears in a gritty avatar as a determined cop, while Surveen Chawla is introduced as a sharp local politician. Also featured are Gullak fame Vaibhav Raj Gupta, exuding intensity, and Shriya Pilgaonkar, seen in a bridal look with dark, mystical undertones — surrounded by a dead body and arcane symbols.
