Kartik-Vidya-Triptii's 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3' teaser to release by August end
Director Anees Bazmee recently wrapped up the final shooting schedule of the romantic-horror comedy, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, on Friday. The last phase of filming took place in Mumbai, following a previous schedule in Orchha, Madhya Pradesh. The Mumbai shoot of the Kartik Aaryan-starrer involved filming on 11 sets constructed across two city locations and the final schedule comprised an intense 40-day stretch to reach the deadline. Now, the first teaser will be out by August end!
How the team raced against time to shoot the movie
A source from the creative team disclosed to Mid-Day that they had always intended to conclude filming by the end of July. During the Orchha filming, production designer Rajat Poddarr was engaged in finalizing the 11 sets in Mumbai. These sets included rooms for characters Raja, Rooh Baba, and Manjulika. After wrapping up in Orchha, the team resumed work in Mumbai during the second week of July.
'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3's shooting locations and scenes
The team initiated shooting at a haveli set in Aarey Milk Colony before transitioning to Royal Palms to film the haveli's interiors. The final two weeks of filming occurred at Goregaon's Royal Palms. "A part of the massive climax, a song with the entire cast, and some dramatic scenes with Kartik [Aaryan] were shot in this schedule. To complete the shoot on time, the team shot for 15 to 20 hours a day,"
There's still a song left to be shot
Now, the team will shoot a romantic song between Triptii Dimri and Aaryan. Despite managing multiple sets, Bazmee found setting a "bigger narrative than the earlier instalments and working with Vidya Balan" to be more challenging due to the audience's expectations. The movie will be released on Diwali, clashing with Singham Again, starring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Ajay Devgn, and Deepika Padukone.
