Aaryan stated, “I loved him [Akshay Kumar] in Bhool Bhulaiyaa. I have grown up watching him, we all have and, I love him as an actor. I think, what we have tried here is trying to do things in our way as much as possible. Of course, there is the title, and the character name to create nostalgia but, there are a lot of things we have done on our own, trying to introduce new characters and, everything.

“So we hope, people love this whole new dynamic world that we have created with Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. And, comparisons will be there. But, I hope they are good ones. And, people remember Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 as a different film”, he further added.
