It was supposed to be just another hot summer night in Delhi. Fans whirring, ACs buzzing, the city lulled to sleep in its humid embrace. But behind the closed gates of a quiet apartment campus, something terrifying was already unfolding. A few nightwalkers stumbled upon the guard lying motionless at the gate, blood pooling beneath him. They tried to help-bandaged his wounds, carried him inside. But the moment their backs were turned... he attacked. When 20-year-old Shivansh wakes up the next morning, he's greeted not by sunlight-but by silence. A strange, choking silence. His phone explodes with over a hundred missed calls, emergency alerts, and videos of people-friends, neighbors-turning into something else. Zombies. Across the country, highways clog. Cities burn. But inside this locked-down society, Shivansh must face a nightmare within the walls he once called home. His father-a Delhi police officer-is missing. His younger brother is terrified. His neighbors are dying... or changing. With no power, no signal, and no way out, Shivansh must protect his family, rally the living, and confront the question no one wants to ask: What if this is only the beginning? Outbreak: Bharat is a grounded, heart-racing take on the zombie apocalypse, blending Indian society, culture, and chaos like never before. 📘 This is Part 1 of a gripping two-part survival saga.
