The trailer opens with an eerie wide shot of a deserted, sprawling bungalow called Ekaki Villa — fog creeping across the grounds, wind rustling through broken windows 🏚️🌫️. It looks inviting at first … but the feeling of unease kicks in early. BollywoodShaadis+2The Week+2
We see the lead, Ashish Chanchlani (also the writer/director/producer) with a group of friends — laughter, playful banter, a subtle sense of reunion 😄👫. Their entry into the villa gives off a “fun trip” vibe. But soon, the tone shifts: the lights flicker, ominous shadows appear, strange noises echo, and the fun becomes fear 🕯️😱. The Reelstars+1
A chilling moment in the trailer: a ghostly voice asks, “What did you think? That you all are alone?” — sending chills and raising the stakes immensely 🗣️😨. The Week+1
The trailer runs about 2 minutes 40 seconds and blends horror tropes (haunted villa, unseen evil presence) with moments of dark humour — a funny line here, a jump scare there — giving the promise of a horror‑comedy ride. BollywoodShaadis+1
It ends with the reveal: the series drop date — 27 November 2025, on YouTube, free and in multiple languages (Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam) 📆📺. BollywoodShaadis+1
