Vaani Kapoor, who starred in ‘Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui,’ will make her digital debut with YRF Entertainment’s new series ‘Mandala Murders’, the producers announced yesterday.

Gopi Puthran (‘Mardaani 2’) directs the show, which is billed as a gritty crime drama. ‘Mandala Murders’ also includes Vaibhav Raj Gupta, known for the SonyLIV series ‘Gullak’, a PTI report said.

According to a press statement issued by the producers, ‘Rana Naidu’ actor Surveen Chawla and ‘Gullak’ star Jameel Khan have also been cast in important parts in the series, which is envisioned as a multi-season show.

Manan Rawat, who previously served as an associate director on several Yash Raj Films (YRF) feature productions, has been hired to co-direct the series.

The series is the second offering from YRF Entertainment, the production company’s newly established digital arm.

‘The Railway Men’, their first digital series, is characterized as a tribute to the unsung heroes of the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy.

R Madhavan, Kay Kay Menon, Divyenndu Sharma, and Babil Khan star in the series.
