The Bhootnii trailer: Sanjay Dutt tries to go macho with horror-comedy, but it just doesn't fit

In times when we have Stree 2 ruling at the Box Office, comes a trailer of a horror-comedy that does everything to be masculine. It is to be noted that while the title of the trailer is feminine (The Bhootnii), there’s nothing feminine about the content itself. Sanjay Dutt refuses to leave character and goes macho even with horror-comedy. The result? Something ineffective.

Here's the trailer of The Bhootnii...

Welcome to the world where Mrs. found her Mr. Wrong. This time, Stree 2 found an unnecessary macho man in Bhootnii. The newly released trailer sees Sanjay Dutt be in his character from ages ago, and honestly, it's something nobody asked for.

Is Bhootni horror-comedy?

Elements of horror? Yes, Bhootnii gets that right with women like Mouni Roy and Palak Tiwari proving to be ghosts seeking true love. Comedy is where this movie fails already, especially when it comes to Dutt's character. Although the Naagin punchline lands, the comedy here otherwise is something only men born in the 80s would probably laugh at. It is in no way what we need in this generation. This one, thus, looks like nothing but a desperate yet failed attempt at trying to beat Stree 2 at horror-comedy.
