In a town where abducting women for marriage is customary, two men kidnap a woman, unaware that she is possessed. One falls in love with the woman, the other, with the witch who has possessed her. When writer Mrighdeep Lamba approached Dinesh Vijan with the concept of Roohi, the producer was thrilled at how the story perfectly fit into his plan of creating a horror comedy universe. “When Mrig came to me, we were yet to release Stree [2018]. Over the next year-and-half, we worked together to find an end that justifies the film,” says Vijan, tracing the genesis of the Rajkummar Rao, Janhvi Kapoor and Varun Sharma starrer.
