Actor Emraan Hashmi is set to make a comeback to the horror genre with his upcoming film ‘ROOH’, which is slated for release in 2027.

The actor announced the project through his Instagram handle, where he shared the film’s teaser. The brief video offers a glimpse into the eerie atmosphere of the film, featuring haunting forest visuals and a mysterious girl levitating in the air before culminating with the appearance of Hashmi, hinting at a dark and supernatural storyline.

‘ROOH’ marks another addition to Hashmi’s association with horror cinema, a genre in which he has delivered some of his memorable performances over the years. The actor previously starred in successful horror titles such as ‘Raaz 3’ and ‘Ek Thi Daayan’, both of which were well received by audiences.

The film will be directed by Mayank Sharma, best known for helming the acclaimed thriller web series Breathe. Sharma’s entry into the horror space has generated curiosity among fans, particularly given his track record of creating suspense-driven narratives.

While the makers have not revealed details about the plot, cast, or production banner, the teaser suggests that ‘ROOH’ will explore supernatural themes and psychological horror elements. The film is expected to be released in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, indicating a pan-India approach aimed at reaching a wider audience.

With horror continuing to be a popular genre among Indian moviegoers, ‘ROOH’ is already attracting attention, especially with Emraan Hashmi returning to a space that has been closely associated with some of his earlier successes. More details about the film are expected to be unveiled in the coming months as production progresses.
