Excitement is reaching fever pitch for the third installment of the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise. Kartik Aaryan is set to reprise his role as Rooh Baba from the second part, and reports suggest that he is currently shooting an impressive entry song. A source close to the production recently revealed that this song—one of the most significant dance sequences ever filmed in Bollywood—involves approximately 1,000 dancers.
Why does this story matter?
Scheduled for a Diwali 2024 release, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (BB3) is backed by Bhushan Kumar.

The spectacular entry song is under the creative direction of esteemed Bollywood choreographer Ganesh Acharya. The song aims to be a feast for the eyes, with Acharya and Aaryan striving to deliver something fresh and unprecedented in Bollywood. The source revealed to OTTplay, "Aaryan has been working on this for the past two weeks. His prep is flawless. The shoot started this week and will continue into next week."
