Asked if she thought twice on signing the dotted lines for “Bhoot…”, Bhumi told IANS: “No. I had read the script and the director is a very dear friend of mine and I known about ‘Bhoot…’ since it’s inception and I knew this one is going to be a genre breaking film. It’s a film that is really going to change the language of horror in India.”
The film is directed by Bhanu Pratap Singh and also stars Vicky Kaushal. “Bhoot…” follows a couple on an abandoned ship lying static on a beach; it is based on a true incident that took place in Mumbai.
“Vicky is such a phenomenal actor. For the love of the script and people involved with the film I just had to do it and I have a lot of faith in Bhanu as a director he’s very promising,” she added.
“Bhoot Part 1- The Haunted Ship” will release on February 21, 2020.
