They thought they'd film their lovemaking on their romantic getaway. Little did Raginni and her lover know that they'd shoot more than they had bargained for.

The footage they shot showed the young woman possessed by something paranormal.
And so, unlike other steamy videos, this one didn't go on to become a public scandal. However, producer Ekta Kapoor was approached with this footage.
After looking at the video, the Balaji head honcho felt compelled to tell the young girl's story to the world. Thus, began the groundwork for Raginni MMS, Ekta's next, a psychological horror.

The producers of the film have bought the rights to the video from the girl in question, the script is ready and they will begin work on Raginni MMS soon.

Her real life experiences will be taken into consideration. The idea is to make it as less filmi as possible and there will be no diluting of content. She's very clear that the film will be made without any changes.
Says Ekta, "I am super excited about this project. It has none of the conventional horror film trappings ufffd bloodbaths, gore or creaky doors."
She adds, "I could have gone ahead and made another LSD 2, but I didn't want that. When I read the script for Raginni, I knew it would be kickass.

I am a huge fan of horror films like Paranormal Activity and Blair Witch Project and the way they have been marketed are brilliant.
We plan to devise new and unique ways to create buzz about Raginni in the coming months (see box)."
Pavan Kripalani directs. Kangna Ranaut has been approached to feature in the film.
Ekta on Bigg Boss
Breaking all norms, Ekta will announce the project on Bigg Boss 4 this weekend.
"The marketing and promotion of Raginni MMS will be done very differently, which is why we are announcing the launch of the project on a TV show even before we go on floors."
The TV czarina is also looking forward to meeting the host, Salman Khan. "He's a rockstar. Also, this would be my first solo appearance on BB4. I have been there before to promote a film for my brother, Tusshar."
