Disney+ Hotstar's latest series Aakhri Sach is all set to stream on the platform on August 25. Helmed by Robbie Grewal, the series stars Tamannaah Bhatia in the lead. The series is based on the spine-chilling Burari deaths of 2018. 

The series is about the mysterious death of a family of 11 members, who all died by hanging. Actor Abhishek Banerjee is all set to be featured as one of the family members, Bhuvan, in the upcoming series. Recently, in a statement, the actor said that it was a little disturbing to get into the sleeve of his character in the series. 

As per a report on IANS, he said, "I tried to think like him. It was very difficult to rationalise his thoughts in my mind, but I had to do it. It's scary when I think about how easily an actor justifies even the crimes of their character in their head. But that's the job."

Further speaking about the scene in which they all had to act as they hung themselves to death, he said, "Towards the climax, there are a couple of scenes, especially when everyone was hanging, it was a scary sight even after knowing that we are shooting, I was teleported to reality where it might have happened, and to experience that, was a little disturbing."

Shivin Narang, Danish Iqbal, Nishu Dikshit, Kriti Vij and Sanjeev Chopra, round out the cast of Aakhri Sach. Robbie Grewal has previously helmed Romeo Akbar Walter and MP3: Mera Pehla Pehla Pyaar
