Horror Boom: Can Prabhas Take it to Next Level?

The horror genre in Indian cinema is seeing a major rise. Audiences are showing strong love for horror, and this demand has drawn several top stars into the industry.

Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Ajay Devgn, Kartik Aaryan, Varun Dhawan, and Rajkummar Rao are now exploring horror films. Akshay Kumar and Kartik Aaryan are part of the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise, while Rajkummar Rao is recognised for his Stree series.

Ajay Devgn has created his own Devil’s Universe with films like Shaitaan and the recent release Maa. Varun Dhawan gained attention with Bhediya, and Prabhas is now stepping into the horror franchise space.

The trend gained momentum after the re-release of Tumbbad. When it first released seven years ago, it collected just 12 crore. But on re-release, it earned a massive 50 crore, proving the rising craze for horror.

Tumbbad is considered one of the finest creations of Hindi cinema. With its eerie folklore-based story, it avoided jump scares yet delivered pure horror. The film proved that horror made with vision can receive immense love from audiences.
