Emraan Hashmi is all set to return to the horror genre once again after the gap of three years. The actor has been roped in for the Hindi remake of Prithviraj starrer horror film Ezra being produced by Panorama Studios. The Hindi remake is being directed by Jay Krishnan who has directed the original Malayalam film.
Emraan confirmed the news saying, “Horror is a genre with immense potential, a well-made horror film will always draw audiences in huge numbers to cinema halls. With Ezra, we hope to push the boundaries further and give the audience an experience that they will never forget. I'm happy to be associating with Kumarji (Pathal) and Abhishek (Pathak) on this film and with Jay Krishnan at the helm of things all I can say is be prepared for one hell of a spooky ride.”
The actor has his fanbase in horror space with his past hits like Raaz: The Mystery Continues, Raaz 3, Ek Thi Daayan and Raaz Reboot.
Jay Krishnan, who is all set to make his Bollywood debut with Emraan Hashmi, says, “When Kumarji and Abhishek watched Ezra they were convinced that it needs to be retold to a wider audience and in a bigger canvas. The fresh approach to the horror genre showcased in Ezra was well received down south and the film was a blockbuster. I hope to push the envelope further with the backing of Panorama studios and the presence of an actor like Emraan Hashmi.”
Produced by T-series and Panorama Studios, the film will be shot in Mumbai and Mauritius.
