According to the user, Bhooth Bangla gives many changes to laugh at in the first half, but in the second half, the film becomes dark and serious. The user liked the combination of humour and horror in the Priyadarshan-directed film. It looks like the netizens are loving the Akshay Kumar-starrer. If everything goes well, Bhooth Bangla could join Dhurandhar 2 as yet another big hit of 2026 in Bollywood. Bhooth Bangla has a powerful ensemble cast. It stars Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Wamiqa Gabbi, Rajpal Yadav, Mithila Palkar, Rajesh Sharma, Manoj Joshi, Asrani and Jisshu Sengupta in pivotal roles. Bhooth Bangla marks Asrani’s last film, as the actor passed away on October 20, 2025. Bhooth Bangla also marks the reunion of Akshay Kumar with Priyadarshan after 14 years. They have worked together on several projects like Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Hera Pheri, Bhagam Bhag, De Dana Dana, Garam Masala and so on. After Bhooth Bangla, Akshay Kumar will again be seen in Priyadarshan’s Haiwaan, which also features Saif Ali Khan in a pivotal role. Stay tuned for more updates!
