Who says g h o s t s are only scary? They can be a lot of fun too. And, that’s exactly what’s going to happen in SAB’s new show, Bhootwala Serial.
And, the producers tell us that these ghosts are not inadvertently funny, but are actually meant to bring a mix of fright and laughter with them. “Our bhoots are a funny bunch, with limited powers and are actually scared of a mightier power than them. Much like the one-who-cannot-be-named, this mysterious force is called Wo,” says SAB business head Anooj Kapoor.
Each episode of this show will be a hilarious face-off between the bhoot family and a human family, as both parties are fighting for the possession of a bungalow. At the same time, each episode also promises to keep viewers on the edge of their seats, with the real force of horror, Wo, also at work. Says Kapoor, “In keeping with SAB’s strategy of relevant and ongoing innovation within the comedy genre, Bhootwala Serial is India’s first horror comedy on television. It combines horror and comedy, to create a very enjoyable and unique family viewing experience.”
Anup Upadhyay, Melissa Pai, Manju B r i j n a n d a n Sharma and Kiku Sharda play ghosts in the show. Dhruv Singh, Rajesh Kumar and Shital Maulik are part of the human family.
