Details
All cliches of horror movies have been exploited

Evidently, Roohi has put all cliches linked to Bollywood horror to play.
Right at the trailer's beginning, we see the ulte paer walk of a 'witch.' To add spookiness, Kapoor is shown with unkempt hair, there are bruises all over her face, and she also does a 180-degree head-turn at one point.
The makers have claimed that this time "Mard Ko Zyada Dard Hoga."

Makes of 'Stree' are back with 'Roohi'

Roohi has been produced by Dinesh Vijan and is directed by Hardik Mehta. The producer had earlier made it clear that he will take the legacy of Stree forward. Vijan, reportedly, is also planning a third film on the same lines with Varun Dhawan.

Pandemic effect
The film's release was delayed due to the pandemic
-
Roohi which was earlier named Rooh Afza and then Roohi Afzana was scheduled for a 2020 release but the pandemic ruined plans. The makers also chose not to release the movie on OTT platforms.
"With a partner like Jio Studios that shares our passion for the eponymous "bada parda," we hope Roohi rekindles the audience's long-standing romance with the silver screen," Vijan said earlier.
