TV actors Ulka, Sameer’s spooky tale on ‘Fear Files’

Television actors Ulka Gupta and Sameer Dharmadhikari are set to recreate on “Fear Files” some of the eerie experiences that they had while shooting for “Jhansi Ki Rani” at the Bhangarh Fort in Rajasthan.

The supernatural thriller show is aired on Zee TV.

Ulka and Sameer played Rani Laxmibai and Gangadhar Rao, respectively, on “Jhansi Ki Rani”, which also aired on Zee TV.

The new episode of “Fear Files” will be a reconstruction of the incidents that had transpired earlier during the shoot of “Jhansi Ki Rani” at the haunted Bhangarh Fort in Rajasthan. The unit of “Jhansi Ki Rani” wanted to showcase the beautiful ruins of the fort. But the moment they would start to roll, some or the other untoward event would happen and mess up the smooth functioning of the shoot.

The Bhangarh Fort special episode of “Fear Files” will be aired Nov 17.

Shooting it will remain a memorable moment for young actress Ulka.

“I wanted to get over my fear as my last visit to Bhangarh was a bit traumatising. Thankfully nothing happened this time. But the eerie, cold and creepy feeling was too powerful to ignore. You get goosebumps the moment you step inside the fort! There is some unnatural element in the Bhangarh Fort for sure,” Ulka said in a statement.

Sameer added: “When the ‘Fear Files’ team approached me for this Bhangarh special episode, I was not convinced. The incident was not a pleasant one and I wasn’t sure if I should go again. But then I looked at little Ulka and found her enthusiasm infectious.”
