JioHotstar has officially announced its upcoming Hotstar Specials series Ali Baba Aur 40 Bhoot.
It is sure to offer the audiences a playful blend of horror, comedy, and fantasy.
The streaming platform shared a first teaser that reimagines the iconic Ali Baba story with a supernatural spin.
That’s because it replaces the legendary forty thieves with an eerie world of ghosts and paranormal surprises.
The teaser opens in a dark forest where flashlight beams cut through the silence.
While the promo keeps the storyline under wraps, it hints at a fun-filled adventure packed with spooky encounters, comic moments, and unexpected twists.
JioHotstar also accompanied the announcement with the cheeky caption, “Ghosting toh normal tha, yeh toh paranormal ho gaya.”
This definitely sets the tone for the series’ lighthearted horror.
Unlike the traditional tale, Ali Baba Aur 40 Bhoot takes viewers into a supernatural universe where mystery and laughter go hand in hand.
The series promises to offer a fresh interpretation of the beloved folk story while retaining its adventurous spirit through a modern paranormal lens.
The cast features Mridul Das, Ramandeep Yadav, Beabhay Mahajan, and Ashish Kaul.
Ramandeep recently wrapped filming for the series after earning appreciation for his performance in Raakh.
The project marks another genre shift for the actor, who has previously appeared in Campus Diaries, CAT, and Gadar 2.
Currently in post-production, Ali Baba Aur 40 Bhoot is expected to premiere on JioHotstar later this year.
