Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022) is a comedy-horror film directed by Anees Bazmee, serving as a standalone sequel to the 2007 hit Bhool Bhulaiyaa. The film introduces a new storyline with fresh characters but retains the blend of humor and supernatural elements that made the original a success.
The plot revolves around Ruhaan Randhawa (played by Kartik Aaryan), a man who pretends to be a psychic medium. He stumbles upon a haunted mansion where the spirit of Manjulika, a character from the original film, is believed to reside. As strange events unfold, Ruhaan, along with Reet (played by Kiara Advani), becomes embroiled in the mystery of the haunted palace and the reawakening of Manjulika’s vengeful spirit. Tabu plays a pivotal role as Anjulika, and her dual performance adds a thrilling layer of suspense and depth to the storyline.
The film also features Rajpal Yadav, reprising his role as Chhote Pandit from the original movie, providing comic relief throughout. Supporting performances by actors such as Amar Upadhyay, Sanjay Mishra, Ashwini Kalsekar, and Milind Gunaji contribute to the eerie yet comedic tone of the film.
Released on May 19, 2022, in the United Arab Emirates, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 has a runtime of 143 minutes and is primarily in Hindi. Like its predecessor, the film mixes comedy and horror, with Bazmee’s direction leaning more toward lighthearted scares and entertaining twists. The movie is filled with humorous moments, spooky sequences, and a mystery that gradually unfolds as the story progresses.
With a rating of 5.7, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 received mixed reviews, with praise for Kartik Aaryan’s lively performance and Tabu’s captivating presence, but some criticism for its reliance on familiar horror-comedy tropes. Nevertheless, the film was a commercial success, appealing to audiences who enjoyed the blend of comedy, thrills, and nostalgia for the original Bhool Bhulaiyaa.
The film’s score and songs, including a new version of the iconic “Ami Je Tomar” track from the first film, were well-received and contributed to the movie’s popular appeal. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 stands as an entertaining mix of supernatural thrills and comedic moments, balancing modern horror elements with the playful charm of Bollywood’s comedic tradition.
