While evil is set to take control of all your emotions, will love hold everything together and stand strong against all fears and spirits? Sometimes, love itself can turn into a horrifying nightmare and you never know what is going to happen next. With this premise, directed by Vikram Bhatt and produced by Rakesh Juneja, Bloody Ishq, starring Avika Gor, is releasing on July 26 on Disney+Hotstar.

Avika said, “I feel very fortunate that Vikram-sir thought of me when he was visualizing this film. Horror is something I enjoy as a genre and to land this role was interesting and challenging. This is entirely different from my roles in 1920: Horrors of the Heart or Mansion 24. I’m really grateful that when it comes to strong, emotional female characters I’m considered, and it gave me this great opportunity to work with the Bhatts again. Neha’s character helped me explore my inner abilities as an actor and I thoroughly enjoyed working with Disney+ Hotstar.”

Director Vikram Bhatt added, “It may be hard to believe me, but I am scared of watching horror films, even though I absolutely enjoy making them for the viewers. I had been wanting to make a horror love story for the longest and when I spoke to Bhatt-saab about it, without a second thought, he jumped in and then Bloody Ishq happened. I wanted to retain some elements of a horror film, like a dark setup, ghosts and spirits, while also adding my own twists to the tale and giving it a fresh mix of a love story, suspense and horror. Avika Gor is one of the most talented actors in the industry and after 1920: Horrors of the Heart, I just knew I had to have her in Bloody Ishq and she has outdone herself.”

Sharing his views, writer Mahesh Bhatt said, “It is always great to create new films with Vikram, as our vision is very similar and we are always on the same page when it comes to giving the audiences what they would love to watch. Bloody Ishq is a one-of-a-kind gripping story that will keep the viewers thinking about the film even when the film is over. We received constant support from Disney+Hotstar, which made working with them a pleasurable experience. A gripping storyline, unexpected twists and horrors that will constantly haunt, Bloody Ishq has all this and more and I am confident that Disney+Hotstar’s audience will definitely enjoy the film.”

Jeniffer Piccinato, Shyam Kishore, Vardhan Puri and Manmeet Singh Sawhney are also in the cast.
