Fun Stuff

Trivia:
The film broke several rules of Bollywood formula films and was nonetheless successful. There were no songs, it was only two hours long, it was heroine-centered, and it was a horror story, not a love story. more
Goofs:
Continuity: When Urmila must climb 12 flights of stairs she is wearing peep-toe sandals with a heel of about 1 inch. But when she enters the flat she is wearing a three-inch heel with straps around the ankle. Similarly, when Rehka first meets Ajay Devgan she is wearing heels. When we see her entering the apartment building she is wearing flat sandals, but once inside the apartment she is wearing another - different - pair of heels. more

Psychologically Scary, 21 June 2007
10/10
Author: springsunnywinter from United Kingdom

The movie was really good and so intensively scary about a couple who moved into a new home and the woman is possessed by a ghost of the person who lived at the apartment. The whole film keeps you in the edge of your seat and makes you jump in a few scenes. It was straightforward and the mystery kept you guessing until the very end. Ajay & Urmila's acting were terrific and what has Urmila done to her hair? It was short, thick and curly; probably to suit the character and long hair won't look good in a horror film. Bhoot is inspired from The Exorcist but Bhoot is a lot better and I did not like The Exorcist one bit. It has to be one of Ram Gopal Verma's best films.
