It was a few days ago when Karan Johar tweeted that soon they will be announcing a new franchise of fear. Everyone was excited to know what it is and now, finally, we know that Dharma Productions has ventured into the horror genre with the film Bhoot. The first part of the franchise is titled as Bhoot: Part One – The Haunted Ship.
The movie stars Vicky Kaushal in the lead role and Bhumi Pednekar will be seen in a cameo in it. Karan Johar took to Twitter to unveil the first look of the film. He tweeted, “Presenting #Bhoot : Part One – The Haunted Ship! The FIRST in the franchise, starring the supremely talented @vickykaushal09, directed by @Bps_91. Sailing towards you on 15th November, 2019. @apoorvamehta18 @ShashankKhaitan @DharmaMovies.”

The first look is quite intriguing and Vicky Kaushal is seen in a totally different avatar. Dharma also shared a few stills of the film on Twitter. They tweeted, “A glimpse into the world of #Bhoot: Part One – The Haunted Ship with @vickykaushal09! In cinemas on 15th November, 2019. @karanjohar @apoorvamehta18 @Bps_91 @ShashankKhaitan.”

When we heard the title Bhoot, the first thing that came to our mind is Ram Gopal Varma’s movie Bhoot which starred Urmila Matondkar and Ajay Devgn in the lead role. Well, the first look of Karan’s Bhoot has impressed RGV. The filmmaker tweeted, “Hey @karanjohar the poster is looking WOW! Can’t wait to see the intense @vickykaushal09 in this genre ???” To this Karan replied, “Thanks for your generosity Ramu….Means a lot to all of us at @DharmaMovies #Bhoot.”

For the uninitiated, Karan Johar and Ram Gopal Varma don’t share a great rapport with each other. So, RGV praising the poster of a Karan Johar film is quite surprising.
Directed by Bhanu Pratap Singh, Bhoot: Part One – The Haunted Ship is slated to hit the screens on 15th November 2019.
