Varun Sharma sports red hair in the upcoming horror comedy, Roohi. As the makers were keen to render a certain uniqueness to his character, it was a collective call to add a dash of colour. Now, if only they had deliberated about the title as well. Hardik Mehta’s directorial venture, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor, was initially called Rooh Afza. To avoid any controversy with the makers of the summer coolant, it was changed to Roohi Afza to Roohi Afzana, and now 
it’s Roohi.

Like Stree, Hardik Mehta-directed Roohi too has feminist undertones. “In 2021, why would we make a film without a message? When people take the elevator after watching the film, they will discuss the laughs, the scares and the message at the end of it,” states Lamba, who has previously helmed the Fukrey franchise.
