Just when we thought the eerie laughter of Manjulika was a thing of the past, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 comes knocking on our doors, bringing back the spine-chilling horror and knee-slapping comedy we’ve been craving. The teaser for the third installment has dropped, and it’s safe to say this Diwali is about to get wild.
From the very first second, Vidya Balan’s iconic character Manjulika is back, and she’s not here to play nice. Her opening line? A scream-filled declaration as she lifts a heavy throne, demanding, “How many times will you snatch it from me? It is MY throne!” And boy, does she mean it. Manjulika’s wrath is no joke. She’s angry, she’s powerful, and she’s ready to reclaim what’s hers. The teaser wastes no time reminding us why Vidya Balan’s portrayal of Manjulika in the first Bhool Bhulaiyaa remains unforgettable she’s intense, unhinged, and terrifying.
Meanwhile, Kartik Aaryan returns as the ever-confident Rooh Baba, who hilariously declares, “People are fools who get scared of ghosts.” Well, Rooh Baba, you might want to rethink that after meeting Manjulika. His nonchalance and charm are part of what makes him such a fun character, and his encounter with the legendary Manjulika is sure to be the stuff of nightmares or, knowing Bhool Bhulaiyaa, nightmares laced with some killer punchlines. The teaser gives us a taste of his playful side, along with a glimpse of his budding romance with Triptii Dimri’s character, adding a sprinkle of sweetness amidst all the chaos.
Visually, the teaser pulls no punches. Eerie, dimly-lit hallways? Check. Burning paintings? You bet. Creepy music? Oh yes, complete with that haunting “Ami Je Tomar” track playing softly in the background. And let’s not forget the infamous red door from the original film. It’s back, and you know that means things are about to get seriously spooky.
But it’s not all scary. The comic relief in the form of Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Mishra, and Ashwini Kalsekar keeps things light-hearted, balancing out the ghostly mayhem. Their impeccable timing adds an extra layer of fun to the film, making sure we don’t take the terror too seriously after all, what’s a Bhool Bhulaiyaa movie without its signature mix of humor and horror?
Vidya Balan’s return as Manjulika feels like the icing on the cake. Her character, who gave us sleepless nights back in 2007, is still the queen of terror. She’s ready to reclaim her throne, and we’re all here for it. Whether it’s her menacing voice or her hair-raising presence, Vidya ensures Manjulika is still a force to be reckoned with.
The teaser perfectly sets the stage for an epic Rooh Baba vs. Manjulika face-off. Kartik Aaryan’s casual ghost-busting attitude may have worked in the past, but facing off against Vidya Balan’s devilish Manjulika? He might have met his match. Add to that the growing romantic tension between Rooh Baba and Triptii Dimri’s character, and you’ve got yourself a recipe for some serious fireworks this Diwali.
With Anees Bazmee once again in the director’s chair and a stellar cast including Vijay Raaz joining the ensemble, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 promises to be a rollercoaster of scares, laughs, and unforgettable moments. The teaser gives us a taste of what’s to come, and fans are already excited.
So, this Diwali, forget about your regular sweets and lights it’s all about Rooh Baba, Manjulika, and a haunted house full of surprises. Get ready for laughs, chills, and a whole lot of thrills, because Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is shaping up to be the ultimate festive entertainer!
