*The mystery thriller, which stars Karan Tacker and Kalki Koechlin, is now available to stream for free on Amazon MX Player.
Mumbai, India – December 13, 2025: Amazon MX Player, Amazon’s free video streaming service, has a show that won’t go away when the screen goes dark. * The real-life story and strange death of Gaurav Tiwari, India’s first paranormal investigator, inspired the book Bhay – The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery. A man who spent his life figuring out what fear meant became its most terrifying question.
### Based on a real and scary story
The fact that Bhay – The Gaurav Tiwari Mystery is based on real events makes it very disturbing. The story is built around Gaurav Tiwari’s investigations, recorded encounters, and sudden death. The horror here is real. It feels too real for comfort.
### A Journalist’s Quest for Answers
The story is told through the eyes of journalist Irene Venkat, who is played by Kalki Koechlin. The series doesn’t go overboard with drama as it looks back on Gaurav’s last days. Instead, it uses pauses, bits of truth, and questions that don’t get answered. The tension builds slowly and doesn’t go away.
### Science, Not Spectacle, Is the Source of Horror
Bhay is different from other supernatural dramas because it is more about investigation than drama. The screen is mostly filled with EMF meters, frequency detectors, and handheld cameras. These real-life tools give the series a grounded, almost documentary-like feel, so every moment of fear feels earned.
### Karan Tacker’s Most Powerful Show Yet
Karan Tacker plays Gaurav Tiwari in a way that is both calm and creepy. His acting is internal, controlled, and very disturbing. Kalki Koechlin adds emotional depth, and the supporting cast—Danish Sood, Saloni Batra, Nimisha Nair, and Shubham Chaudhary—makes the story more believable and real.
### The Core: Logic vs. Faith
The series is really about the fight between logic and faith. Irene is a sceptic at first. But the more she digs, the less clear the line between what she knows and what she doesn’t know becomes. The best thing about the show is that it never gives easy answers.
