The Bhootnii Movie Review: The Bhootnii, written and directed by슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Sidhaant Sachdev, is supposed to be a horror-comedy - except the comedy is horrifying, and the horror elicits giggles. But there슬롯사이트™s an underlying mystery that makes it utterly captivating: what on earth convinced Sanjay Dutt not only to슬롯 머신 사이트 추천act슬롯 머신 사이트 추천in this atrocity but to슬롯 머신 사이트 추천invest슬롯 머신 사이트 추천in it as a producer? This film is so catastrophically bad that if I were part of the cast or crew, I슬롯사이트™d discreetly scrub it from my IMDb credits.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천'The Bhootnii' Song 'Mahakaal-Mahakaali': Sanjay Dutt Invokes Spiritual Fervour in This Powerful Shiv Bhakti Track (Watch Video).

The story is set in some random college (whose name I couldn슬롯사이트™t be bothered to remember). It슬롯사이트™s슬롯 머신 사이트 추천supposed슬롯 머신 사이트 추천to be a science institute, though no one슬롯사이트™s doing anything remotely scientific - instead, they슬롯사이트™re praying to a campus tree called the슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Virgin Tree슬롯 머신 사이트 추천to conjure up a lover. Frankly, it슬롯사이트™s a fitting metaphor for the country슬롯사이트™s declining scientific temperament. Then there슬롯사이트™s the tantrik hero, who insists that슬롯 머신 사이트 추천true progress슬롯 머신 사이트 추천can only be achieved by merging religion and science, right before spouting mythological nonsense.

'The Bhootnii' Movie Review - Dumb Plot

On Valentine슬롯사이트™s night, Shantanu (Sunny Singh, who looks old enough to send his슬롯 머신 사이트 추천own슬롯 머신 사이트 추천kid to primary school), a heartbroken collegian, bawls in front of the tree after drinking. His loser tears awaken its spirit, Mohabbat (Mouni Roy), who becomes obsessed with this man-child.

Shantanu has two friends, Sahil (Nick, in his movie debut, but should have stuck to his reels) and Nasir (Aasif Khan), who compete for the title of슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Most Annoying. Honestly, their scenes make you root for the ghost to just슬롯 머신 사이트 추천end them all슬롯 머신 사이트 추천and spare us the agony. In fact, Ms Ghost, could you start슬롯 머신 사이트 추천before슬롯 머신 사이트 추천the opening credits? Because the suffering begins immediately- Sunny Singh delivers the least convincing drunken act in cinema history right in the first scene.

Then there슬롯사이트™s Ananya (Palak Tiwari), Shantanu슬롯사이트™s friend-with-a-crush. Since the budget clearly couldn슬롯사이트™t stretch to Ananya Panday, Palak had to suffice. To be fair, she슬롯사이트™s not half bad - in fact, she슬롯사이트™s the only one who actually looks college-aged. But her chemistry with Sunny Singh is as non-existent as the film슬롯사이트™s entertainment value.

And of course, there슬롯사이트™s Sanjay Dutt as슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Baba, a para-psychist (I am just repeating words here, I have no clue what that entitles)슬롯 머신 사이트 추천who seemingly raided his슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Rudraksh슬롯 머신 사이트 추천wardrobe for this role. He슬롯사이트™s summoned to the college to investigate the haunting, where he stumbles upon Shantanu and his undead girlfriend.

'The Bhootnii' Movie Review - Atrociously Bad!

From the opening scene, it슬롯사이트™s painfully clear you슬롯사이트™re in for a슬롯 머신 사이트 추천jolly슬롯 머신 사이트 추천bad time. The screenplay, camerawork, editing, and performances unite in glorious harmony to make you squirm in secondhand embarrassment. The dialogue is so painfully unfunny that some actors don슬롯사이트™t even bother delivering it properly. Poor Aasif Khan슬롯 머신 사이트 추천tries슬롯 머신 사이트 추천to salvage his lines before surrendering entirely. The comedy, when nothing works, either has the characters explain the punchline of the non-existent jokes or simply rely on homophobia to sail through.

The special effects are on par with the rest of the film - including the attempt to make Mouni Roy look scary (she ends up resembling someone with Fanta in their veins). After a ghostly fight scene, a character remarks,슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트œThis reminds me of Naagin.슬롯사이트슬롯 머신 사이트 추천I슬롯사이트™ve never watched the show (which, incidentally, starred Mouni Roy - oh, meta joke슬롯사이트¦ har har!), but I wholeheartedly agree. Not to mention, there are plenty of continuity errors, which you are bound to miss if you are watching the film while holding your head, nursing the headache that슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Bhootnii is bound to give you.

After two hours of self-inflicted humiliation, the film슬롯 머신 사이트 추천briefly슬롯 머신 사이트 추천embraces its absurdity - like a ghost and Shantanu playing슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Antakshari슬롯 머신 사이트 추천in the clouds슬롯사이트”and almost becomes fun. But then it takes itself seriously슬롯 머신 사이트 추천again, cramming in an awkward romantic song between Sunny and Palak before hurtling toward a climax where people fly around a tree, Sanjay Dutt struggles with rope stunts, and the ghost gets a tragic backstory because슬롯 머신 사이트 추천horror슬롯 머신 사이트 추천clearly wasn슬롯사이트™t working.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천슬롯사이트˜Ghudchadi슬롯사이트™ Movie Review: Neither Sanjay Dutt-Raveena Tandon nor Parth Samthaan-Khushalii Kumar Could Salvage This Outdated Romcom!

The best part? It슬롯 머신 사이트 추천finally슬롯 머신 사이트 추천ends. There슬롯사이트™s an epilogue, but I was too terrified to check if it teased a sequel. One슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Bhootnii슬롯 머신 사이트 추천is more than enough for my lifetime.

'The Bhootnii' Movie Review - Final Thoughts

The Bhootnii is so atrocious that even the single star I gave in the review feels overly generous. The direction, the performances, the dialogues, the songs (what even was that idiotic "Tara Ra" track where the characters urge us to sodomise ourselves?), the technical aspects, the CGI슬롯사이트”every element is in perfect sync, united in being thoroughly mediocre and painfully embarrassing. Move over Nadaaniyan - this is, without question, the worst Hindi film of 2025. And we still have eight months to go. That슬롯사이트™s far scarier than anything Mouni Roy attempted on screen.
