Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 brought the laughs and scares it promised, to the big screen on Friday. The film, which stars Kartik Aaryan, is touted to be a standalone sequel to Akshay Kumar’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007). Aaryan recently opened up about comparisons between his film and the original.

In a conversation with ETimes, the actor talked about how he didn't think that people would draw comparisons between his film and the original. Saying that he himself did not think about the comparisons between the two films, Aaryan revealed that he had treated Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 as ‘a completely new film’ ever since he came on board for it. “I think more than pressure, it’s something which I feel when everyone will watch the film, they’d realise it’s a completely different film,” he said.
