The town you're asking about is probably Bhangarh in Rajasthan, famous for its dramatic ruins and eerie legends.

Bhangarh was a prosperous town established in the 16th–17th century by Raja Bhagwant Das or his son Madho Singh, but it’s now mainly known for its abandoned fort and the legend that it was cursed either by a local sadhu (hermit) whose rules for building weren’t followed, or by a sorcerer whom the local princess outwitted with deadly consequences.

Stories of hauntings have made it one of the most talked-about “haunted” locations in India—so much so that entry after sunset is officially prohibited, and tales of paranormal activities add to its mystique.
