Soon after the update was shared, fans were seen flooding the comments section. One fan wrote, “Eagerly waiting to watch it again.” Another fan wrote, “Finally wait is over.” A third fan wrote, “Chlo membership restart krne ka samay aagya.”

News18 gave 2.5 stars in its review. A part of the review read, “In flashes, Bhooth Bangla taps into a certain nostalgic absurdity, particularly in its more playful, slapstick stretches. It also has a Bhool Bhulaiyaa hangover. There’s an Aami Je Tomar-esque song capturing classical love. The interval block of Bhooth Bangla will remind you of a brand of comedy Bollywood once thrived on, but if you overstay, you’ll realise that much like yourself, the film is also struggling to not zone off.”

Bhooth Bangla marked Akshay and Priyadarshan’s reunion after a decade. The duo has worked on films like Garam Masala, Hera Pheri, Bhagam Bhag, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Khatta Meetha and more. They are all set to return with another film titled, Haiwaan, a remake of Mohanlal’s Malayalam hit Oppam. The film also stars Saif Ali Khan and Saiyami Kher in key roles. It will be released in theatres in August this year.
