November 26, 2024: What a moment that must have been for Kartik Aaryan! His dream of dancing with Madhuri Dixit, paired with a Bhool Bhulaiyaa twist, sounds like a delightful blend of nostalgia and fun.
The iconic Pehla Pehla Pyar from Hum Aapke Hain Koun is already one of the most romantic songs in Bollywood, and seeing Madhuri perform it with Kartik must have brought back memories for many fans. But adding a twist with her Manjulika persona from Bhool Bhulaiyaa was a brilliant touch! It perfectly blends the playful romance of the song with the eerie horror-comedy vibe that defines the Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise.
Kartik’s caption—”Living my dream. Rooh Baba and Manju in every universe”—reflects his excitement about the moment, and the chemistry between him and Madhuri seems to be working wonders. It’s great to see him so appreciative of his journey, especially with the success of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, which seems to be continuing the franchise’s winning streak in the horror-comedy genre.
The fact that this collaboration comes on the heels of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3‘s success, and after a box-office clash with Singham Again, is a testament to how much audiences are enjoying this fresh take on the genre. Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has become part of a successful trend in 2024, joining Munjya and Stree 2 as notable horror-comedies. With Madhuri, Vidya Balan, and Triptii Dimri joining Kartik, it’s an ensemble that’s hard to ignore.
