"Bhoot worked because of its location. It’s a bustling city. There was this idea of, ‘It could happen in a neighbour’s house, it could happen in the building across the street, it could happen in my own building.’."

Priya Suhas, Production designer

"We checked out at least 10 apartments between Bandra and Andheri. Most of the societies in Bombay wanted to see the script first and once they knew it was a horror film with a haunted apartment, they refused to give us permission to shoot there."

Vishal Sinha, Cinematographer

"For the scene in which the camera dives off the building, I was suspended along with it. I was hooked up to a harness and I went down 18 floors. I shat bricks that day."

Jijy Philip, Assistant director 

"The idea is that Fardeen Khan is in the driver’s seat, but then the steering wheel starts moving on its own. It was complicated – we had to get another steering wheel on the passenger’s side of the car. That’s where Fardeen was really sitting. A stunt guy was sitting in the driver’s seat and driving while Fardeen looked panicked."
