Varun Dhawan’s Cameo in ‘Munjya’

According to the latest reports, viewers of ‘Munjya‘ will be treated to a significant cameo appearance by Varun Dhawan, reprising his role as the werewolf ‘Bhediya‘ from the 2022 film. This unexpected crossover is seen as a significant move in the expansion of the Maddock Supernatural Universe, hinting at potential future collaborations and plot connections between the two franchises.

Maddock Supernatural Universe Expands

The Maddock Supernatural Universe was first established with the success of ‘Stree’ in 2018, starring Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao. This was followed by ‘Roohi’ in 2021 and ‘Bhediya’ in 2022, both of which were well-received by audiences. The inclusion of Varun Dhawan’s ‘Bhediya’ character in ‘Munjya’ suggests that the studio is actively working to build a cohesive and interconnected cinematic world around the supernatural genre.

‘Munjya’ Premise and Cast

‘Munjya’ revolves around a mischievous spirit trapped inside a tree in a coastal village, which causes chaos when it gets attached to an awkward Pune boy. The film stars Sharvari Wagh and Abhay Verma in the lead roles, with Aditya Sarpotdar directing. The unique concept of a CGI antagonist has also generated significant interest among moviegoers.

Excitement for Future Collaborations

The surprise cameo in ‘Munjya’ has left fans eagerly anticipating the future of the Maddock Supernatural Universe. Speculations are rife about potential crossovers, shared storylines, and the possibility of more interconnected narratives between the different franchises. This move by the studio is seen as a strategic step to further expand and capitalize on the popularity of the horror-comedy genre in Bollywood.

Sharvari Wagh and Abhay Verma Share Fond Memories from ‘Munjya’ Set

In a separate interview, the lead actors of ‘Munjya’, Sharvari Wagh and Abhay Verma, opened up about their experiences working on the film and the strong bond they developed during the shoot.

Bonding Over Music and Dance

Sharvari revealed that she and Abhay became close friends during the long road trips to the film’s Konkan-based locations. “Abhay and I wanted to be on the road together; the long hours were infinitely more enjoyable together,” she shared, adding that they would listen to a wide range of Bollywood music and even break into spontaneous dance routines along the way.

Overcoming Childhood Fears

The actors also shared their personal experiences with childhood fears, with Sharvari admitting to being terrified of characters like Manjoolika and Jadoo from popular Bollywood films. Abhay, on the other hand, revealed that he used to dread the sound of the night guard’s stick tapping against his window, fearing it was the mythical ‘Baaba’ coming to take him away.

Embracing the Horror-Comedy Genre

Despite the film’s spine-tingling elements, Sharvari and Abhay emphasized that the overall tone of ‘Munjya’ is more focused on comedy than horror. “We laughed at people getting scared,” Sharvari said, highlighting the playful and lively dynamic on the set during the filming process.

‘Munjya’ is set to hit theaters on June 7, 2024, and promises to deliver a thrilling blend of horror and humor that will captivate audiences and further expand the Maddock Supernatural Universe.
