Overview
- At the Red Lorry Film Festival in Mumbai, Varma joined a Bhoot screening and held a Q&A on the film’s making and legacy.
- He confirmed his next feature, Police Station Mein Bhoot, is a horror-comedy slated for a May release starring Manoj Bajpayee and Genelia Deshmukh.
- Varma said a close-up in Rangeela’s Hai Rama convinced him that Urmila Matondkar could carry Bhoot’s lead role.
- He described Bhoot as a reworking of his 1992 film Raat with the relationship recast from father–daughter to husband–wife.
- He said the Lokhandwala apartment used for the 2002 shoot remains vacant, and suggested Kangana Ranaut could do justice to the role today.
