Meera is portrayed by Mithila Palkar.Soon, a series of strange incidents begins to unsettle the family. The frightened locals believe the mansion hides dark secrets. Arjun is forced to investigate the mysterious past of the property and the true reason his estranged grandfather left it to them.The ETimes review of the film reads, “The film’s narrative and treatment follow a familiar path, drawing on the nostalgia of Bhool Bhulaiya and even Bhagam Bhag. The first half is entertaining, driven by Priyadarshan’s brand of raucous comedy, and many scenes will have viewers guffawing as the quartet of Kumar, Rawal, Yadav, and Asrani embrace the physicality and exaggeration with gusto. There’s a scene where Arjun performs a pooja for his sister’s wedding, and the guruji asks him to pick up a sword, saying, “Ab isey kaato,” meaning for him to chop off a plant’s trunk, but Arjun bites the sword instead. The comic timing here, and in most of the film’s humorous moments, is noteworthy.”The film brings together an ensemble cast featuring Paresh Rawal, Jisshu Sengupta, Rajpal Yadav, Tabu and Wamiqa Gabbi in key roles.DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
