Whenever horror films are mentioned in Hindi cinema, the name of Ramsay Brothers is definitely taken. These two makers Ram Ramsay and Tulsi Ramsay were known for horror films. His horror films were such that after watching them, people were afraid to go out alone even during the day. One of his most popular films is 'Veerana.' It has been more than 36 years since 'Veerana' was released, but even today this movie continues to scare people. But do you know how Ramsay Brothers came up with the idea of making this film. Let us tell you.
'Veerana' is also remembered by the name of Jasmine Music, who is a witch in the film, who seduces men with her tricks and later kills them. Alisha Kripalani, granddaughter of Fateh Chand Ramsay, in her book 'Ghosts in Our Backyard: The Ramsays' Real Life Encounter with the Supernatural' has revealed how the Ramsay Brothers came up with the idea of making this film.
The film 'Veerana' was made in 1988 and about five years before that, an incident happened with Shyam Ramsay of the Ramsay Brothers which shook his soul. Inspired by this, he made the film 'Veerana.' According to Alisha's book, what happened was that Shyam Ramsay was in Mahabaleshwar in 1983 to shoot his film Purana Mandir. After the shooting was over, the entire team returned, but Shyam Ramsay decided to stay there. After staying there for a few days, when he was returning late at night, a woman asked him for a lift. That woman was very beautiful. Shyam Ramsay gave her a lift in the car, but when he tried to talk to the woman, he did not feel anything was right. She was just looking at the mirror the whole way.
In this book, Alisha further told that later her legs also got twisted and she landed near a graveyard. Shyam Ramsay quickly ran away from there, but he used this experience of his life in the film 'Veerana'. Many years have passed since 'Veerana', but people still remember its blue-eyed actress Jasmine. However, after this film, the actress was not seen in any movie. Later, it was Ramsay Brothers who revealed that Jasmine had left films after her mother's death.
Talking about Ramsay Brothers, they are also known for 'Band Darwaza', 'Puraani Haveli', 'Tahkhana' and Zee horror shows on TV.
