When the reports of the same had started doing the rounds, a source had revealed, "Kartik has been approached for the film as well and the talks are in the final stages. It is a matter of time before a formal announcement comes in. However, it is Kartik who has, in all likelihood, made the cut. With the super success of Luka Chuppi and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety behind him, he is hot favorite amongst the youngsters. Director Farhad Samji has some very interesting plans for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 in order to cater to the youth and family audiences. Kartik’s appeal in this segment really helps.”
Producer Bhushan Kumar officially, the 2nd instalment will
be helmed by Anees Bazmee, unlike the first one, which was directed by
