Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 follows a similar style and structure as Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, using the same blend of horror and comedy in a way that’s fun for the whole family. For those who enjoyed the second movie, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 promises similar entertainment with a few fresh twists. Although the trailer might have suggested that this film focuses more on comedy and less on horror, the full movie delivers plenty of scares, laughs, and surprises.
The plot revolves around a haunted haveli, where a 200-year-old ghost has been frightening the local villagers. In search of a solution, the villagers seek help from Rooh Baba, played by Kartik Aryan, who reassures them that ghosts are not to be feared, but rather managed. Kartik Aryan brings a lot of humor to the role, much like Akshay Kumar did in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 1, known for his comedic timing and charm. Although his character mainly shines in the climax.
This part of the review highlights an exciting twist in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. Both Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit portray characters who claim to be Manjulika, This unexpected face-off between the two adds drama and mystery. In the previous movies, the character of Manjulika stayed mostly hidden and only appeared in the climax, heightening suspense until the end. However, in this film, Manjulika steps boldly into the narrative. Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit both deliver standout performances, bringing a powerful energy to their roles.
In a refreshing twist, the iconic “Ami Je Tomar” sequence now features not one, but three characters claiming to be Manjulika, teasing an unexpected third character. While the movie includes jump scares to add moments of fright, the horror is kept mild, so it’s not overly scary. Instead, the film leans more into its comedic elements, which stand out and provide a lot of enjoyment for the audience.
Overall, the climax is both unexpected and thrilling, leaving a strong impression on the audience. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 might not reinvent the genre, but it’s a solid entertainer that keeps you hooked till the end.
