Though extensive, Rakul Preet Singh’s filmography lacked a horror film. With Boo, she got the perfect opportunity to try her hand at the genre. The actor says director AL Vijay approached her for the Tamil-Telugu offering during the 2020 lockdown. “He had created a concept-based, psychological horror-comedy that would be shot from start-to-finish in a house [in Hyderabad]. It was an experimental script,” recounts Singh.
The Hindi version of the bilingual drops on JioCinema today. Also starring Vishwak Sen and Nivetha Pethuraj, it revolves around Singh’s character Kiara whose Halloween celebration with her friends turns spooky when spine-chilling events start taking place, as they read a book on supernatural occurrences. While shooting for the spook fest was a different ballgame compared to her previous offerings, Singh says her first brush with the genre was a riot, as the story had comic elements to it.
