While we have seen many erotic thrillers in Bollywood like Murder, which have fared well at the box-office too, we now have an erotic thriller web series courtesy of Vikram Bhatt.

Titled Maaya, The film stars Shama Sikander, Vipul Gupta and Veer Aryan as the leads.

When the promo of Maaya came out, it created an uproar as it dealt with a theme considered taboo in India - BDSM (Bondage, Domination, Sadism and Masochism).

Maaya is an attempt to go bold and is something left untouched by filmmakers.

We got our hands on an exclusive poster of the web series and it is indeed bold and beautiful.

In terms of preparing for the script, Vikram reveals that apart from knowing real-life BDSM lifestylers in person, Bhatt also went online and spoke to people on websites like Fetlife and Alt.com. "You will not believe the amount of Indians that are on these sites," he said.

"Any kind of deviant sex is so looked down up and judged that the practitioners like to remain anonymous. It is ironical that to be true yourself you need to be anonymous," he added.
