New Delhi: You might be reminded of Anushka Sharma’s Phillauri or some horror shows that you may have seen in your childhood after watching the trailer of the Marathi series Bhootatlela. But as the promo progresses, the story takes a comical turn where a unique kind of love triangle starts unfolding.
Soon to be wed Rayba is blessed to have found a match in a beautiful girl Shivani, but he keeps seeing an unidentified girl – a ghost called Sudha, during his wedding festivities.
Directed by Shivaji Lotan, the show revolves around Rayba (Priyadarshan Jadhav) whose life takes an unexpected turn just before his wedding to Shivani (Surabhi Hande). On his Haldi day, he forgets to take the Katyar given by his mother to keep the evil spirits away and suddenly he feels that someone has started following him.
The trailer opens with Rayba riding a bike with his friend riding pillion. The friend excuses himself and gets down to attend to nature’s call. Rayba feels two hands are still on his shoulders and he asks his friend to get down fast. He’s shocked to find that it’s not his friend and the viewers see two severed hands of a girl holding him lovingly.
