It is no secret that the Hindi film industry is trying to rekindle the flames of blockbusters past, and director-writer Anees Bazmee is the latest to join the brigade. He will be helming the remake of the iconic 2007 comedy-thriller Bhool Bhulaiyaa, in collaboration with T-Series’ Bhushan Kumar and Murad Khetani. The film has Kartik Aaryan as the male lead.

The director reveals that he is elated with the association. “I am thrilled to once again be associated with Bhushan ji and Murad bhai. Having worked with them on separate projects in the past, I’m now looking forward to collaborating with them on Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. I am also excited to work with Kartik. He is a very talented actor and has a great part in the film.”

Anees is currently also working on Pagalpanti, which he is trying to finish quickly so he can start Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. “I have the responsibility of making a good sequel for my fans, so that audiences can go back home from the theatre satisfied.”
