Summary
- Esha Deol stars in her first horror-comedy film, 'GHUNGHAT'.
- The film is set in a mysterious village haunted by a spirit.
- Esha found the script's blend of fun, spooky, and meaningful elements appealing.

Esha Deol is set to explore the horror-comedy genre for the first time with her new film, 'GHUNGHAT'. While she has previously acted in separate comedy and horror movies, this project uniquely combines both elements.
Deol stated that the script appealed to her due to its engaging mix of fun, spooky, and emotional content, which also carries a meaningful message. She described it as an entertaining and distinct experience for her as an actor.
The film's narrative is set in Jangipura, a village tormented by Bhuri, a spirit whose past suffering has become a curse. The story is expected to weave together supernatural events and suspense with lighter, emotional storytelling.
Directed by Rajiv S Ruia, 'GHUNGHAT' also promises to incorporate romance and fantasy. This venture follows Deol's more gradual move away from mainstream roles to focus on personal life and family responsibilities after her marriage in 2012 and subsequent separation announcement in 2024.
