While it is being said that Kartik Aaryan may step into Akki’s shoe to play the titular role, the latest are the speculation that say Welcome (2007) director Anees Bazmee may be directing the project.

Rohit Shetty’s Golmaal Again and Amar Kaushik’s Stree gave a boost to the horror-comedy genre. It was Bhushan’s idea to get into this space with Bhool Bhulaiyaa and spin it into a franchise,” a source close to the development reveals.

Moreover, the project is being said to roll out by this year-end!
