It has been reported that Tabu will join the cast in January. A source close to the development told Mumbai Mirror that the actress "loved the script and her role" and is "expected to join the cast in January." The source said: "Tabu has been in talks with the makers for a while now. She loved the script and her role. She is expected to join the cast in January when the second three-month schedule kicks off in London and Rajasthan," reported Mumbai Mirror.
He also revealed how the sequel will be different from the original film. "While Bhool Bhulaiyaa was a psychological-thriller with lots of laughs, the sequel is a proper horror-comedy with plenty of spooky moments," the source told the publication.
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 went on floors last month. Directed by Anees Bazmee and produced by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series, the film is expected to open in theatres on July 31, where it will clash with Ranbir Kapoor's Shamshera, which will release on July 30.
