Anees Bazmee Reveals How Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 Will Take Audiences On A Fresh, Thrilling Ride

Surely!

Filmmaker Anees Bazmee shares his vision for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, discussing how the film aims to exceed fans' expectations with a fresh story, a stellar cast, and deep ties to the franchise’s legacy.

Anees Bazmee recently opened up about Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, and he seemed quietly confident about the kind of impact this film would have. Produced by Bhushan Kumar, the movie is set to bring back Manjulika’s haunting presence, but this time, the story digs even deeper into Rooh Baba’s world. With an impressive cast that includes Kartik Aaryan, Triptii Dimri, Madhuri Dixit, and Vidya Balan, Bazmee hinted that the casting was a huge strength on its own. He shared that, right from the early scripting phase, there was a feeling that they were onto something truly special—a sentiment that only grew as each actor signed on, drawn in by the story and their unique roles.

Looking back at the franchise’s journey, Bazmee acknowledged the weight of fans' high expectations, especially after the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 in 2022. But with the third chapter, Bazmee wasn’t just focused on meeting expectations—he wanted to surpass them, offering something that felt both new and yet deeply connected to the essence of the franchise. According to him, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has a number of unique selling points, and the cast, he believes, stands out as one of the key highlights. Alongside Kartik and Vidya, the dynamic “pandit trio” of Sanjay Mishra, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Rajpal Yadav bring their own comedic charm. Bazmee promised fans a “new kind of horror” that would keep them on their toes and an unforgettable musical experience with “Ami Je Tomar 3.0” featuring the incredible Madhuri and Vidya.

Bazmee seemed to carry a quiet pride in the atmosphere created on set, especially when he reminisced about the first few days of shooting. He recalled the thrill of seeing every actor slip seamlessly into their character, from Vidya to Kartik, who had recently wrapped up his role in Chandu Champion. For Bazmee, one of the standout moments came during Madhuri Dixit’s first shot—he remembered how the entire set burst into applause, an instant validation of the magic they were capturing on screen.
