Additionally, in another instance, Anees Bazmee, the director of the second and third instalments of the film series also talked about the fourth film. “Bohot badi zimmedari hogi Part 4, chahe koi bhi banaye, but it will be a huge, huge responsibility to make, kyunki uska direct comparison hoga 1st se, 2nd se, aur 3rd se, toh woh aasan kisi ke liye bhi nahi hoga, mere liye bhi (It will be a huge responsibility to make Part 4, because it will be directly compared to the first, second, and third parts. So, it won’t be easy for anyone, including me).”

The ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ franchise kickstarted with the 2007 blockbuster title led by Akshay Kumar with Priyadarshan at the helm. The title took a psychological approach to unravel the hauntings in the film. It hinged on the condition of split personality disorder. It starred Vidya Balan as Manjulika, the lead antagonist of the franchise. Subsequently in 2022, the actor-director duo of Kartik Aaryan and Anees Bazmee took over the reigns of the franchise. The film starred Tabu as the antagonist in a double role with Kiara Advani playing Aaryan’s love interest. The three titles do not follow a chronological order but feature the same characters, serving as standalone films.
