Slipping into Akshay Kumar's character of Dr. Aditya Shrivastav (psychiatrist) was a big deal for Kartik. When asked the Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety actor about the responsibility he has on his shoulders, he told mid-day, "Bhool Bhulaiyaa has been one of my favourite horror comedies. Being part of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 makes me happy, especially because I've been a big fan of Akshay Kumar sir. It's a big responsibility to take his franchise forward."
Akshay Kumar's Bhool Bhulaiyaa - psychological thriller revolved around a couple, essayed by Vidya Balan and Shiney Ahuja, who move to their ancestral palace. Akshay's friend, Shiney claims that their ancestral palace is haunted. The movie is a remake of Rajinikanth's Chandramukhi (2005), which was inspired by Malayalam film Manichitrathazhu. This film smartly tackled superstitions while shining a spotlight on mental disorders.
When mid-day asked Anees Bazmee if the film will start from where Akshay left it, he preferred to stay mum and did not divulge any details. He rather emphasised that the film will take on society's superstitious beliefs. "It reinvents the premise of the first film and is a fresh take on the genre. It talks about how society is blinded by superstitions in a humorous manner," said the director.
Written by Farhad and Samji, Kartik Aaryan's film is scheduled to release on July 31, 2020. Other characters' names from the film haven't been revealed yet.
