Directed by Mayank Sharma, known for creating the acclaimed Breathe franchise on Prime Video, Rooh brings together a team with strong credentials in both thriller-driven narratives and horror storytelling. The film is written by Sharma along with Vishal Kapoor, who has previously been associated with films such as Lapachhapi and Chhorii, both known for their rooted and unsettling horror elements.
Produced by Vikram Khakhar and Sunny Khanna under the Vicked Films banner, Rooh is being mounted as a large-scale theatrical experience. The film is slated for release in 2027 and will arrive in multiple languages including Hindi, Tamil and Telugu, indicating a pan-India release strategy aimed at a wide audience base.
For Emraan Hashmi, Rooh marks a notable return to the horror genre, where he previously built a strong identity through films like the Raaz franchise and other supernatural thrillers. His association with such stories has often been linked to strong musical tracks and emotionally intense narratives, a pattern that Rooh appears to be continuing with its musical horror concept.
Early reactions to the announcement have already generated buzz, particularly around the film’s unique genre blend and the expectation of a strong soundtrack-driven experience. With its combination of horror, music and theatrical scale, Rooh is shaping up to be one of the more closely watched genre films in the coming years.
