Richa Shukla Moorjani, actor, producer and activist, was born and raised in the Bay Area, California. She made her series lead debut in the internationally beloved Netflix dramedy, "Never Have I Ever" (created by Mindy Kaling). After its premiere in 2020, the show immediately hit #1 around the world in the Netflix Top 10 and has been nominated for numerous awards including a TCA Award, People's Choice Awards, Hollywood Critics Associate Award and NAACP Image Award. Being cast out of a pool of somewhere between 15,000 actors from a global casting call for the 3 South Asian female leads of the series, Richa won the hearts of a global and cross-generational audience with her portrayal of the brilliant, bold, and stereotype-subverting 'Kamala'.
The Hollow Veil is a neo-gothic horror film set in the desolate, long-abandoned town of Elden Hollow, hidden deep in the Pennsylvania woods. Once wiped out by a supposed "plague" in 1782, the town is chosen centuries later as the setting for a live-streamed reality show. Forty-six participants—college students, influencers, and crew—arrive at the decaying Blackmoor Estate, lured by the promise of fame and a $50,000 reward. But when an ancient bell tolls and one contestant is found gruesomely murdered, the line between legend and reality dissolves. As panic escalates, the group uncovers the dark legacy of Dr. Vale, a colonial-era physician who believed in curing illness through bloodletting, lobotomies, and torture. Now, a masked killer stalks the survivors, reenacting Vale’s twisted “treatments.” Is it a ghost, a madman, or something even worse—an inherited madness fed by forgotten rituals? Trapped by fog, time, and terror, the survivors must confront history itself before they too become part of the Hollow’s story.
