Leena Yadav | Filmmaker & Screenwriter | House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths, and more

Cyrus Says

On this episode, Cyrus is joined by filmmaker and screenwriter Leena Yadav, who is the creator behind the acclaimed true-crime Netflix docu-series 'House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths', a series that explores the 2018 case of the Chundawat family in the Burari district of Delhi, 11 of whose members were found dead in their house seemingly as a case of mass suicide. Cyrus asks Leena about this harrowing case she covered on the show, how she went about probing the subject and talking to the families, neighbours and friends of the Chundawat family, talking to the police officers and journalists involved with the case, and tons more. They also talk about another similar case from Bangladesh (Adam's Cult Suicides), why we feel so compelled to watch true-crime shows, and more. A truly great episode of Cyrus Says.
