The horror film is produced by Anam Abbas, executively produced by Shant Joshi, Todd Brown, and Maxine Cottray. In Flames stars Rameesha Nawal, Bakhtawar Mazhar, Adnan Shah Tipu, and Omair Javaid.
Unlike typical films, In Flames is divorced of music and depends heavily on script and sound to establish its chilling nature.
Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap spoke words of aplaudit stating, “In Flames is so much more than a moody horror film. It talks about society, pulls out everything, and shows it bare naked. That hits you so hard in the gut.”
