The newly weds are warmly welcomed; but when Siddharth insists on staying on in his ancestral mansion, it upsets his relatives, especially his uncle Badrinarayan Chaturvedi (Manoj Joshi), who openly voices his disapproval. Despite warnings about the mansion being haunted, he shifts there. Soon, strange things begin to happen and he is forced to call his psychiatrist friend Aditya (Akshay) for help. The film also featured Amisha Patel, Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav.
Director Farhad is presently working on his Akshay’s Housefull 4. His writing credits include the upcoming Varun Dhawan, Sara Ali Khan starrer Coolie No 1, a remake of the David Dhawan, Govinda hit of the ’90s.
