Kartik Aaryan is all set to reprise his role as Rooh Baba in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.

The actor has announced a third installment for the film franchise. On Wednesday, he took to his social media handles to drop a video that sees the abandoned mansion of Bhawanigarh where the storyline of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 took place.

Kartik is heard saying, “Kya laga kahani khatam ho gayi hai? Darwaje toh bandh hotein hi hai taki ek din phir se khul sake (Did you think the story ended here? Doors are often shut so that they can be opened once more).”

He is then seen dressed up as Rooh Baba, seated on a swinging chair with Ami Je Tomar playing in the background. Repeating his dialogue from the latest film, he adds, “Mai aatmao se sirf baat hi nahi karta, aatmein meri andar aa bhi jaati hain (I don't only talk to dead but they can also possess me).”

Sharing the spooky video, Kartik wrote, “Rooh Baba returns Diwali 2024.” He also used the hashtag ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.’

Reacting to the post, fans shared their excitement.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 was directed by Anees Bazmee and produced by Bhushan Kumar-led T-Series and Cine1 Studios. It received positive responses from critics and audiences with a whopping business of ₹230.75 crore worldwide. Besides Kartik, the film also starred Tabu, Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Mishra and Kiara Advani.
