Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 title song releases on May 02
Mumbai: The makers released the title song from the upcoming Bollywood film, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, on Monday, May 02, 2022. The film will release in theatres on May 20, 2022.
The song features actor Kartik Aryan in a black suit who shows dance moves while grooving to the track. He does a moonwalk and tap dance as a cat makes appear in the song.
Aryan launched the song across four cities in Chandigarh, Lucknow, Delhi, and Gurgaon on Monday.
Sung by Neeraj Shridhar, additional lyrics by Mandy Gill, and music recreated by Tanishk Bagchi and Pritam, the song is similar to Akshay Kumar’s.
Though similar to the prequel, it is far from peppy.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 features a new cast, including Aryan, Tabu, Kiara Advani, and Sanjay Mishra. Rajpal Yadav is the only cast member to reprise his role as Chota Pandit.
Talking about the role of priests in the film, director Aneez Bazmee said, “Rajpal was fantastic in the first film, along with the rest of the cast, including Paresh Rawal Ji. When we were writing the sequel, there were three pandit characters. That allowed me to get Rajpal on board again.”
Directed by Priyadarshan, the 2007 film featured Akshay Kumar as a psychiatrist who uncovers the reasons behind the ongoing paranormal activities in his best friend’s mansion. Aryan plays the character of Rooh Baba in a role similar to that of Kumar.
Bazmee let go of the original psychological thriller and insisted on mounting the sequel as a horror-comedy to avoid direct comparisons.
“When you watch this film, it will remind you of part one, but it is not exactly similar. If I offer you the same film, what is the point in making a sequel? My film is a horror-comedy. You will keep getting glimpses of the world but still watch a new film,” he said.
