Talking about the role, Dutt said he didn’t approach it any differently. “As actors, our job is to make every role believable. Whether it’s a gangster or a ghostbuster, the effort is the same,” he shared. He also spoke about the charm of horror-comedies, saying they’re fun because they manage to scare and entertain at the same time. According to him, The Bhootnii brings back the nostalgic feel of classic horror-comedies while keeping things modern and engaging.
What really convinced him to do the film was the script. “It grabbed me right from the first page. Everything just fit together — it was funny, spooky, and very well written,” Dutt said. With its unique storyline, a strong cast, and a fun blend of chills and laughs, The Bhootnii offers something different for audiences and is now streaming only on ZEE5.
