Campus turns chaotic in 'Indian Institute of Zombies' trailer
Mumbai, April 30
The makers of 'Indian Institute of Zombies' have unveiled the trailer of the movie, which presents a campus-based zombie narrative.
The film is backed by Kuku as its maiden feature. Directed by Gaganjeet Singh and Alok Dwivedi, it is produced by Kunj Sanghvi and written by Hussain Dalal and Abbas Dalal, known for their work on 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' and 'Farzi', among others.
It features Mohan Kapur, Anupriya Goenka, Jesse Lever, Shivani Paliwal, Rose Sardana, Sachin Kavetham, and Tanishq Chaudhary.
Set against the high-pressure backdrop of college life, 'Indian Institute of Zombies' presents a unique narrative where academic competition takes a sinister turn. The trailer showcases a world in which top-performing students are mysteriously transformed into zombies, unleashing chaos across classrooms and hostels, as per the press release.
As the outbreak spreads and the academic order begins to collapse, the responsibility of tackling the crisis falls on an unlikely group, the backbenchers.
The trailer highlights a blend of suspense, fast-paced storytelling, and campus-centric comedy, complemented by a high-energy background score, according to the press release.
The film is slated for a nationwide theatrical release on May 15.

Looks fun, but honestly, the trailer feels a bit stretched. The zombie-in-college idea is fresh, but the CGI could use some polish. Still, I'm rooting for a desi horror-comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously.
Interesting mashup of genres—campus drama meets zombie apocalypse. The backbenchers-as-heroes angle is clever. Hope the story delivers as much as the trailer promises. Might be a sleeper hit if marketed well.
Hussain Dalal's writing is always sharp—remember 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani'? This seems like a wild ride. But why does every Indian sci-fi/horror have to mix in comedy? I wanted more genuine scares, yaar.
The trailer reminds me of Shaun of the Dead meets 3 Idiots—definitely not a bad combo. Good to see Mohan Kapur in a different role. Will watch it in theaters if the reviews are decent.
As someone who survived IIT JEE, I can tell you—college pressure literally feels like a zombie apocalypse. 😂 This movie captures that metaphor perfectly. Backbenchers for the win! Booking tickets already!
