EXCLUSIVE: Vikram Bhatt reveals why Haunted – | Indian Movie News
Vikram Bhatt struck gold with Haunted 3D (2011). It’s a movie that kick-began the 3D development in Bollywood and turned a sleeper hit at the box workplace. Hence, there are high expectations for the next movie in this franchise, which is set to release on June 12. Interestingly, the movie was earlier titled Haunted – Ghosts Of The Past. As per the movement poster that dropped yesterday to announce the release date, the movie was renamed to Haunted – Echoes Of The Past. Bollywood Hungama completely spoke to director Vikram Bhatt about this side. This was in all probability the director’s first interplay with the media after he confronted a major personal turmoil in his life.
Vikram Bhatt told Bollywood Hungama, “The Haunted films are not just about ghosts. At its heart, it’s a poignant love story. Meanwhile, the film was getting delayed for some reason or another and also, I had to face incarceration. A very close friend of mine said that this is probably happening due to the word ‘Ghost’ in the title. He told me, ‘Title mein se Ghost ko hata do’. I told him, ‘Theek hai. Hata dete hai (smiles)’. That’s how we came up with Echoes Of The Past.”
He additional remarked, “I never believed in such things until now. Also, you can’t make a ghost film without believing in superstition (laughs).”
The use of AI in the movement poster was criticized by a part of the viewers. Vikram Bhatt clarified, “This is how motion posters are designed. But I can assure you that there’s absolutely no AI in the film at all.”
Lastly, when requested when the teaser of Haunted – Echoes Of The Past will likely be out, he revealed, “We plan to release it this month itself.”
Like Haunted, Haunted – Echoes Of The Past also stars Mimoh Chakraborty and this time, he’s joined by Chetna Pande, Shruti Prakash, Gaurav Bajpai, Praneet Bhatt and Hemant Pandey. It is produced by Anand Pandit and Rakesh Juneja and will likely be distributed worldwide by Anand Pandit Motion Pictures.
