TellyChakkar had reported about Vikram Bhatt making a thriller starring Pooja Bose and now we hear that BBC too will produce a thriller. The show, according to sources, is an adaption of the popular telly series Afterlife that aired on Star World. Raahil Azam has been finalised to play a pivotal role in the desi version. Looks like Star Plus is no mood to be N0.2. Having tried thrillers like K Street Pali Hill produced by Balaji Telefilms, which was liked and appreciated by the viewers, the channel is now bringing in bigger names to produce thrillers for them. Informs a source, “The show is about a girl, who has this unexplainable paranormal power. She later transforms into a psychic who communicates with the spirits to know the reason behind their presence in someone’s life. As an aide she has a cop along with whom she solves the mysteries. Raahil who was last seen in Mr and Mrs Mishra will be seen as the cop. Along with many other popular names, one film wonder Gauri Karnik too auditioned for the lead role of the show.” Azam was out of town and hence asked us to call later. We also texted Saul Nasse, BBC Worldwide Content and Productions India GM and Creative Head, but he too didn’t revert. To those uninitiated, Afterlife , a British television drama series was first broadcast in 2005. The series follows the activities of a psychic medium which appears to have the ability to communicate with the spirits of the dead.
