yra Banerjee, a critically acclaimed Tollywood star who became a household name following her role as Divya in popular Indian daily soap Divya Drishthi, is now venturing onto the global stage.
Starring as the female lead in ‘Barun Rai & The House on the Cliff’, a new psychological horror film set in the 1970’s England, Indian actress Nyra Banerjee grips viewers with her expert portrayal of Soumili who is one half of the young couple who move into their dream home in the sleepy town of Corvid’s Head unbeknownst to the spate of mysterious suicides plaguing the area and local police force. Perplexed and alarmed by the many strange deaths, the couple seek answers from Detective Barun Rai – a specialist investigator famed for unravelling paranormal crimes.
Nyra joins a talented line-up including Sid Makkar (The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel), Priyanshu Chaterjee (Love will find a way) and talented British actors Tony Richardson, George Dawson, and Emma Galliano amongst others. The film is produced by Producer-Director Sam Bhattacharjee and will screen in various Cineworld and Vue cinemas across the country this Halloween.
Nyra continues to make a name for herself in the Indian Television Industry as she essays the role of Chakori in the Dangal TV serial, Rakshabandhan… Rasal Apne Bhai Ki Dhal.
