While
Karan
Johar's
name
is
synonymous
with
rom-coms
and
family-entertainers,
the
filmmaker
is
all
set
to
create
his
first
horror
franchise
with
Bhoot
-
Part
One:
The
Haunted
Ship
under
his
production
banner.
Starring
Vicky
Kaushal
and
Bhumi
Pednekar
in
lead
roles,
the
film
is
helmed
by
debutante
director,
Bhanu
Pratap
Singh
who
earlier
assisted
Shashank
Khaitan
on
Humpty
Sharma
Ki
Dulhania.
The
movie
is
centred
around
a
haunted
ship
and
is
based
on
a
true
story.
This
morning,
the
makers
dropped
the
first
poster
of
the
film
featuring
Vicky
and
it
looks
every
bit
riveting.
Sharing
the
first
look,
Vicky
tweeted,
"Nothing
haunts
you
more
than
reality.
Presenting
#Bhoot
Part
One
-
The
Haunted
Ship,
directed
by
@Bps_91.
In
cinemas
15th
November,
2019.

Shashank
was
quoted
as
saying
by
DNA,
"Karan
loved
it.
Bhoot
-
Part
One:
The
Haunted
Ship
is
based
on
a
true
incident
that
took
place
in
Bombay.
The
shooting
is
complete.
The
post-production
is
underway
and
the
film
will
open
in
cinemas
on
November
15
this
year."
Based
on
a
ship,
as
the
title
suggests,
the
film
also
has
a
good
dose
of
VFX,
work
on
which
is
underway.
Shashank
further
said,
"The
intent
is
to
create
a
series.
We're
looking
at
making
more
authentic
films,
even
horror
comedies.
Bhanu
and
I
have
discussed
a
few
ideas.
It's
an
exciting
time
to
take
the
franchise
ahead."
Interestingly
in
real
life,
Vicky
Kaushal
can
hardly
handle
the
horror
genre
as
a
viewer.
When
asked
why
he
took
up
Bhoot,
the
actor
had
earlier
told
Mid-day,
"I
realised
that
my
reaction
in
the
film
would
be
as
natural
as
is
possible."
In
2003,
Ram
Gopal
Verma
had
helmed
a
horror
film
titled
Bhoot
which
starred
Urmila
Matondkar,
Ajay
Devgn
and
Fardeen
Khan.
The
makers
approached
him
as
he
had
the
rights
to
the
title.
Shashank
further
told
the
daily,
"It
was
extremely
gracious
of
RGV
to
give
the
title
to
us."
Bhoot:
The
Haunted
Ship
is
slated
to
hit
the
big
screens
on
November
15,
2019.
