Akshay Kumar and Tabu will begin shooting the climax of their horror comedy Bhooth Bangla in a southern city on April 17. Sources reveal that director Priyadarshan has planned a month-long schedule focused primarily on the film's climax and other key scenes. Once the schedule wraps up by mid-May, Bhooth Bangla will be almost complete.
That’s swift progress for the horror comedy, which began filming only this January in Rajasthan. The shoot kicked off at Chomu Palace in Jaipur, with the cast—including Kumar, Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Wamiqa Gabbi, and Mithila Palkar—later filming in Hyderabad and Mumbai. Now, director Priyadarshan is set to begin the film’s most crucial phase.
A source shared, “A grand palace set has been created by art director Sabu Cyril at Ramoji Studios for this segment. The main cast will be involved in a sequence where Kumar’s character, a magician, debunks myths surrounding black magic. While it deals with a serious theme, the scene will be delivered in an entertaining manner, much like Priyadarshan’s approach in Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007).”
Once this schedule wraps, the team—along with leads Akshay, Tabu, and Wamiqa—will head to London for the final leg, which includes a song and a few dialogue scenes. Given the film’s heavy use of VFX, Priyadarshan is aiming to complete principal photography by May to allow ample time for post-production ahead of its April 2026 release.
Bhooth Bangla is generating buzz as it marks the reunion of Kumar and Priyadarshan after 15 years. Backed by Ektaa R Kapoor, the film weaves together fantasy, horror, and humour to delve into the theme of black magic.
A source reveals, “With Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Priyadarshan addressed myths about spirits while highlighting a mental health issue. This time, he’s turning his lens on black magic—a practice still widely believed in across India. The script draws from some of the oldest Vedas to build its argument against witchcraft, curses, and sorcery.”
