The cast looks fantastic – Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav! That's a powerhouse of talent right there. A horror-comedy with this team should be a riot. Hope the song lives up to the hype.

Honestly, I'm a bit skeptical. The last few Priyadarshan films felt repetitive. Hope the script changes he asked for bring something fresh and not just the same old tropes. Fingers crossed though, love the genre.

Pritam's music, Arijit's voice, and a horror-comedy? Sold! The title 'Bhooth Bangla' itself is so fun. Hope it brings back the kind of laughter we had with Bhool Bhulaiyaa.

Interesting to see the business side - entire team on board in 3 days! Shows how much trust there is in this collaboration. Also, Haiwaan and Hera Pheri 3 announced? Akshay is on a roll.

Wamiqa Gabbi is a great choice! She's such a talented actress. Excited to see her share screen space with veterans like Tabu and Akshay. This film is my most anticipated for sure! 🤩
