Consequently, Rooh Baba will face off against the two ghosts portrayed by Madhuri Dixit and Vidya Balan. This marks the first on-screen collaboration between the two leading ladies, making it a significant move by the filmmakers. The report further stated that production for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is scheduled to commence next month. Additionally, it mentioned that Sara Ali Khan is under consideration for the female lead role in the film.
