The supernatural comedy franchise is set for a major creative overhaul! In an exciting exclusive development, veteran filmmaker Priyadarshan has been finalized to direct Bhoot Police 2. The much-anticipated sequel will be produced by Ramesh Taurani and Akshai Puri and is set to return with an entirely new star cast, signaling a fresh and immersive vision for the ghost-hunting adventure.
This marks a significant directional shift for the franchise, which was originally headlined by Saif Ali Khan, Arjun Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Yami Gautam in the 2021 film, Bhoot Police.
Priyadarshan Takes Over: A New Direction for Horror-Comedy
The decision to bring Priyadarshan onboard is a huge win for the horror-comedy genre. Known as a master of ensemble comedy with iconic hits like Hera Pheri, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, and Hulchul, his involvement suggests a stronger emphasis on situational humour and a more immersive blend of horror elements.
A source close to the development confirmed the exclusive news:
"Priyadarshan sir will direct the film, and the team is currently shaping the script. Ramesh ji and Akshai ji are backing the project once again, and the casting is currently in process. The makers want to take the franchise in a fresh direction, and Priyadarshan ji's comic sensibilities make him the perfect fit."
Key Updates on Bhoot Police 2
- Director Confirmed: The legendary Priyadarshan will helm the sequel, injecting his signature comedy style.
- Producers: Ramesh Taurani (Tips Films) and Akshai Puri (12th Street Entertainment) are retaining their roles.
- Casting Reboot: The film will feature an entirely new ensemble cast, moving away from the original film's actors to establish a new identity.

The Franchise Reinvention: Why the New Cast and Director?
The original Bhoot Police (2021), directed by Pavan Kirpalani, received appreciation for its quirky supernatural adventure. While the core concept of ghost hunters was entertaining, the producers are aiming for a creative reboot to make the sequel even bigger and more appealing, targeting both critical and commercial success.
By bringing in Priyadarshan, the producers are banking on his ability to elevate the script with his trademark comedic timing and sharp narrative structure. His proven track record in the horror-comedy space (most notably Bhool Bhulaiyaa) assures audiences of a fun and spooky ride with a renewed focus on character-driven humor.
The casting for Bhoot Police 2 is currently underway, and the announcement of the new lead actors is expected to generate significant industry buzz. Fans are eagerly waiting to see which established stars will step into this revamped supernatural world under the guidance of the iconic Priyadarshan.
