Sonakshi Sinha and Riteish Deshmukh are set to bring a unique twist to the horror-comedy genre with their upcoming film ‘Kakuda’. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, known for his success with ‘Munjya’, the movie promises to deliver laughs and scares in equal measure.
Recently, while Sonakshi Sinha was enjoying her honeymoon, the trailer of ‘Kakuda’ took the internet by storm. Alongside Sinha and Deshmukh, the film features Saqib Saleem and Aasif Khan in pivotal roles. Directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, the movie is a fresh take on horror and comedy.
The trailer introduces us to Sunny (Saqib Saleem), who is deeply in love with Indira (Sonakshi Sinha). Determined to be together, they tie the knot and move to the village of Ratodi, only to face a sinister curse. Their lives take a spooky turn when they fail to adhere to a mysterious ritual involving Kakuda, a malevolent spirit. To their rescue comes Victor (Riteish Deshmukh), an unconventional ghost hunter who adds a humorous touch to the narrative.
Riteish Deshmukh shines as Victor, bringing his trademark humor to the role. The trailer humorously pokes fun at popular films like ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ and ‘Stree’, suggesting that today’s ghosts are rather dull.

Riteish Deshmukh shares his enthusiasm for playing Victor, a role that allowed him to explore new facets of his acting prowess. He praises the film’s unique blend of genres and credits his co-stars for their talent and camaraderie.
