‘House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths’ (Netflix): It’s not an easy watch, but this riveting documentary about the deaths of 11 members of a family in India’s Burari area of Delhi is a must-watch. Directed by Leena Yadav of ‘Parched’ and ‘Rajma Chawal’ fame, the plot of this docu-series is chilling. But what’s more scary is that it’s not fiction, but a real-life incident that sent shock-waves across India. A family across three generations were found hanging from the ceiling — blindfolded, gagged, and their hands tied behind their backs. Multiple theories on their death are explored in this series. If you are looking for closure to one of the most mysterious mass deaths in India, you are not going to get it here. But this well-made series makes for an impressive one-time viewing. It’s fascinating, morbid and macabre.
