/> Indian audiences' fascination with ghosts, spectres and ghouls will now be extended into zombies. So far films about zombies have not been a part of Indian cinema's horror culture. But now two filmmakers the Shor In the City co-directors Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK and the Manorama 6 Feet Under director Navdeep Singh have decided to make what the think would be India's first Zombie thriller.

Unknown to Nidimoru and Krishna and their producer Saif Ali Khan is the fact that another producer has hit upon the same idea. Zombie-land it is for the Abhay Deol starrer Shaadi Of The Dead to be directed by Navdeep Singh.

While the Kunal Khemu starrer Go Goa Gone is about a bunch of youngsters out to have fun who get assailed in zombies, the Abhay deol starrer Shaadi Of Of The Dead is about an attack by zombies while a full-on Punjabi wedding is on.

Both the projects want to take a lighter look at the cult of zombies.

Interestingly both the projects want to get on with their respective Zombie shows on the floor immediately. Each one wants to be the first Zombie film in the theatres and efforts to the shooting started and completed asap are on.

While Kunal Khemu who plays the lead in Go Goa Gone feigns ignorance of the other project the Shaaadi Of The Dead producer Sid Jain says he's aware of the other project.

"More films will help widen the genre, so I'm happy someone else is attempting a zombie film. But I plan to make a series of zombie flicks. In fact even before Shaadi Of The Dead has gone on the floors we've already planned the sequel Honeymoon Of The Dead. "
