A
Quirky
Title
According

Mirror,
the

has
been
titled
Rooh
Afza.
Speaking
about
it,
producer
Dinesh
Vijan
told
the
tabloid,
"Even
though
the
film
is
named
after
a
refreshing
summer
drink,
there
is
nothing
sweet
about
Rooh-Afza."
Roof
Afza
Will
Be
Based
In
Uttar
Pradesh
While
Stree
was
based
in
Chanderi,
this
new
film
will
be set
in
Moradabad
in
Uttar
Pradesh
and
revolves
around
another
urban
legend.
The
film
is
scheduled
to

this
year.
Roof
Afza
Revolves
Around
This
Folk
Legend
Reportedly,
the
horror
comedy
revolves
around
a
singing
ghost
who
puts
grooms
to
sleep
so
that
it
can
possess
their
brides.
Dinesh
Vijan
Spills
The
Beans
The
producer
told
Mirror,
"In
Rooh-Afza,
every
time
a
wedding
happens
in
the
town,
the
women
scramble
to
keep
the
groom
awake
through
his
first
night.
At
the
same
time,
the
chudail
is
trying
to
put
him
to
sleep
with
a
lullaby.
It
is
believed
that
if
a
groom
dozes
off,
she
proceeds
to
possess
his
bride
in
a
bid
to
make
his
marital
life
hell."
Vijan
further
added,
"The
film
is
a
laugh
riot
all
the
way
while
at
the
same
time, talk
of
the
legend
and
the
spirit
will
have
you
looking
around
yourself, wondering
if
she
is
anywhere
close
by."
