'Kapkapiii': A hilariously haunted ride awaits with Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade

The trailer of 'Kapkapiii,' the upcoming horror-comedy starring Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade, was unveiled this week, teasing a spooky-yet-side-splitting cinematic experience. Directed by the late Sangeeth Sivan, the film opens with a group of friends experimenting with an Ouija board, unwittingly summoning a series of eerie and uproarious events. What begins as a chilling séance quickly spirals into chaos, filled with mischievous spirits and laugh-out-loud moments. The film’s strength lies in the chemistry between Tusshar and Shreyas, whose comic timing and effortless camaraderie lend the supernatural tale a nostalgic charm. Their pairing, fondly remembered from earlier comedy hits, brings a familiar warmth and rhythm to the ghostly narrative. The trailer suggests that 'Kapkapiii' may be one of the season’s most entertaining crowd-pleasers, combining ghoulish hijinks with witty humour. Blending horror with comedy in a uniquely Indian context, the film explores paranormal thrills through a lens of absurdity and satire. With its haunted house setup, quirky characters, and clever screenplay, 'Kapkapiii' walks the fine line between fright and fun. Echoing the energy of Sangeeth Sivan’s cult hits like 'Kyaa Kool Hain Hum,' the film promises a nostalgic throwback with a modern twist on spooky storytelling. Reflecting on the experience, Tusshar Kapoor shared that working on 'Kapkapiii' felt like coming home. He noted that the film's realistic setting and relatable characters were enhanced by the creative freedom Sivan offered to the actors. “The Ouija board element is rarely explored in Hindi films, and this one adds a fresh take,” he said. With a stellar supporting cast, the film is all set to hit the big screens on May 23, delivering frights and fun in equal measure.
