The Ramsay brothers, a famous family of Bollywood filmmakers, spent much of the 1970s and 1980s terrifying moviegoers in India with their cult horror films, but what remains interesting is the way the popular brand of horror movies originated out of a Radio shop in Pakistan.
The Bollywood family became immensely popular for the horror genre and went on to make around 45 films during the decade of 70s and 80s, centered on a unique mix of horror and erotica, featuring zombies, vampires, werewolves, and ghouls.
One of the seven brothers, Shyam Ramsay, who was considered the brain behind the group, passed away in 2019. However, he did leave a legacy through the films he directed.
