Director Anees Bazmee is preparing for the much-anticipated release of ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’, featuring Kartik Aaryan and Triptii Dimri, set to hit theaters on November 1. Recently, Bazmee opened up about the challenges he faced while working on the film with a significant leg injury.

During an interview, Bazmee shared that he continued directing ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’ after fracturing his leg and undergoing surgery. He humorously remarked, “One could say I shot the film sitting on one leg (laughs).” The injury occurred just a week or ten days before filming began. Despite doctors advising him to rest for 4 to 6 months, Bazmee decided to proceed with the scheduled shooting to meet the announced Diwali release date. “If I had delayed shooting, we would have missed the date,” he explained.

Bazmee believed that working on the film would aid his recovery more than resting at home. He revealed that he directed a significant portion of the movie while seated. “I also felt that if I stayed at home, I wouldn’t recover quickly. My decision to start shooting shocked everyone. I was in a lot of pain, but we pushed through, and I completed more than half of the film while sitting in my chair," Bazmee recounted.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is one of the year's most eagerly awaited films. The franchise's third installment introduces Triptii Dimri and sees Vidya Balan returning as Manjulika. The film is set to compete with Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again at the box office.
