Through a meticulously crafted script and immersive shooting locations across India, Saudi Arabia, and New York, the film promises to deliver a horror experience that is both visually stunning and emotionally resonant.
The collaboration between Gillings and the visionary producers at Astro Lion Pictures—Rohini Singh, Manmeet Singh, and Paramdeep Singh—underscores their shared commitment to crafting narratives that transcend borders and captivate global audiences.

Indeed, “WRAITH” is poised to leave an indelible mark on viewers with its exploration of ancient traditions, profound warnings, and their impact on the modern world. With its unprecedented mix of fear, cultural depth, and psychological intensity, this otherworldly horror promises a cinematic experience like no other.
As Manmeet Singh expresses, “We are ecstatic to have Robert Gillings, a visionary in storytelling, lead ‘WRAITH.’ This film is set to be a trailblazer in the horror genre, offering an unprecedented mix of fear, cultural depth, and psychological intensity.”
Echoing Singh’s sentiments, Rohini Singh adds, ” ‘WRAITH’ is not just another exorcism horror film but a significant milestone in cinematic storytelling. It delves into the ever-powerful and malevolent evil forces unleashed by the horrifying real-life history of Sati.”
Paramdeep Singh encapsulates the essence of “WRAITH” as an “otherworldly horror set to captivate and terrify audiences worldwide, promising a unique cinematic experience filled with suspense, cultural depth, twists, turns, and a shocking conclusion.”
