In 2019, it was reported that Anees Bazmee has been given the responsibility to take the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise forward. Afterward, it was disclosed that the movie will feature Kartik Aaryan and Kiara Advani in lead, with Tabu coming on board to play the character possessed by a ghost. The shoot began in early 2020, but, the Lucknow schedule was stopped mid-way due to the coronavirus infused lockdown.
The team come together on the shoot again a year later in March 2021 in Manali and Mumbai and shot for significant portions of the horror comedy, before it being delayed again after Kartik tested positive followed by a long wait due to a lockdown in the City. Now, things are slowly opening up again, and the filmmaker is looking to start Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 as soon as possible in Mumbai.
The director Anees Bazmee revealed to a media source, “Now that we have got permission to shoot, we will sit down and plan the schedule this week. The remaining portions of the film will be wrapped up in one schedule in Mumbai, however, we might have to go to Lucknow for a brief period for continuity purpose. We are working on the logistics and will know the exact dates in next few days. But the film is almost ready and the remaining portions will be shot in one go.”
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is scheduling for a November 2021 release.
