Phone Bhoot starring Katrina Kaif, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and Ishaan Khatter is one of the most-anticipated Hindi films of this year. It is directed by Gurmmeet Singh of Mirzapur fame and produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s banner Excel Entertainment.
Written by Ravi Shankaran and Jasvinder Singh Bath. The film also stars Jackie Shroff, Sheeba Chaddha, Nidhi Bisht, and Surender Thakur in supporting roles. Ever since the film was announced, fans of the actors have been excited to see the trio on the big screen. Now, the makers of Phone Bhoot have finally unveiled the trailer of the movie.
Exploring such an ensemble cast for the first time, the horror comedy explores the fun side of Katrina Kaif, Siddhant Chaturvedi, and Ishaan Khatter.
Having Kaif play the ghost is definitely fun. Fascinated by ghosts, Siddhanth Chaturvedi and Ishaan Khatter set out on a journey of becoming ghostbusters and they come across the fun and pretty Katrina Kaif – a ghost who is out to there to set the ghosts ‘free’ so that they can attain ‘moksh’ (salvation). As the trio set out to clear the world of bhoots (ghosts) and let them attain salvation, their ride gets twisty with the entry of Aatmaram aka Jackie Shroff.
Here, have a look at the trailer:
Within just an hour of the trailer release, netizens showered leading lady Katrina Kaif with praises for her experimental look and stellar comic timing in the film.

Bollywood actor Ananya Panday made her debut in Bollywood with Karan Johar’s Student Of The Year 2 with Tiger Shroff and has managed to mark her place in the film industry.
In a recent chat, the actress revealed that she has faced ‘sexism’ in the early days of her career.
During her recent appearance on The Ranveer Show, the Pati Patni Aur Woh diva said: “As soon as I started working, people started saying things like ‘you should fix this and fix that, like get a boob job or change something about your face. And, it is said very casually and not in direct words that you sometimes even don’t pick it up. They would say, ‘just fill up a little more. Put on some weight.’”
Ananya said that she felt hurt about it and would think, “Is that what people care about? Is that what I am reduced to? Is there nothing about me paramount to my waist size or chest size?” She said that the worst thing a person can do is judge them for their body.
Panday mentioned that she wasn’t promised work in the industry nor was spoken about any opportunities. The actress also said that she always wanted to be an actress but she never knew how she would accomplish that. “I never thought it was going to be easy,” Panday said.
Meanwhile, on the work front, the Khaali Peeli actress will be seen next in Puri Jagannadh’s action film Liger alongside Vijay Deverakonda, which will release in the theatres on 25 August 2022.
Earlier this year during Gehraiyaan’s promotions, Deepika Padukone explained how Ananya does not like sharing food and further elaborated on how they (Gehraiyaan’s leadcast) tried to invite themselves for a dinner at Ananya’s house but Panday was not keen on having them over.
When interviewer Cyrus Broacha asked Ananya why she did not want to have them over, she said, “Because my dad (Chunky Panday) is always roaming around in a towel. If you all still want to come, come.”
Director Shakun Batra and Deepika also revealed how Ananya never shares food.
Shakun and Cocktail diva recalled an incident when she didn’t share her keema pao with others but gave a few peas from the dish to Shakun.
While talking about the incident, Deepika told Cyrus Broacha on his show Cyrus Says on YouTube, “She doesn’t share her food.” Shakun further revealed how Ananya only shared some matar (peas) from the keema pao she was eating. Deepika then says, “At least you got that.”
Deepika added, “We invited ourselves to Ananya’s house because she said that she is having keema pao for dinner. We said thanks for inviting us and she was like ‘Yes if you guys wanna come, please come but there isn’t enough pao for you all.’” She further said, “We then waited 40 minutes for our food that we ordered but she kept eating hers and didn’t share.” Ananya then points at Shakun and says, “I gave him 2-3 matar (peas).”
Director Shakun Batra joined the conversation right after and pointed out how bizarre the reason was. “I can already imagine so many memes being made on that.”, he said.
