a mysterious comedy with a mystic mix fun and frolic
Bhool Bhulaiyaa, directed by Priyadarshan, is a rollicking comedy of fun and frolic. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Shiney Ahuja, Vidya Balan and Amisha Patel.
The film studies the age old super-natural phenomena with a dash of science, a touch of modernity and loads of common sense. The relevance or otherwise of the fear of the unknown is deftly dealt with a generous splash of comedy coupled with the unavoidable human frailties and foibles.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa revolves around a US-based couple Siddharth Chaturvedi ( Shiney Ahuja) and Avni (Vidya Balan), who are visiting their family in India. The newly weds receive a warm welcome. But when Siddharth insists on staying on in his royal ancestral mansion, it upsets his relatives, especially his uncle Badrinarayan Chaturvedi ( Manoj Joshi), who openly voices his disapproval.
Despite the opposition, Siddharth, ignorant of a secret that has destroyed the family for generations, moves into the haunted mansion with Avni. Initially, everything is normal but gradually mystery, shock and surprises start greeting them at every step.
Scientifically inclined, Siddharth ignores it at first, but the mysterious incidents are hard to neglect, so he decides to solve them with the help of his friend Aditya (Akshay Kumar ).
A doctor by profession, Aditya is known for his eccentric ways and unpredictable nature. He agrees to help Siddharth and flies down to India to probe the mysterious occurrences in the mansion.
Batukshankar Upadhyay ( Paresh Rawal), Radha (Amisha Patel) and Chhote Pandit (Rajpal Yadav) constantly hinder his work and create confusion. But Aditya manages to get to the bottom of the matter.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa, inspired by the hit Malayalam movie Manichitrathazu, starring Shobhana and Mohanlal, is releasing on October 12.
