After the success of Netflix’s anthology film Lust Stories, directors Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee and Anurag Kashyap are coming together again to spread some chills with Ghost Stories. They are looking forward to experimenting with the horror genre.
Now, Zoya Akhtar has started shooting for her short film. She took to Instagram to share a photo.
Vijay Varma has been roped in for her film, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor.
“As a writer/director, I thrive on bending genres and inverting tropes and I am looking forward to attempting that with a ghost story,” Zoya had told IANS.
As for Karan Johar, he revealed that he has always been mortified to watch the horror genre. “I have always stayed far away from any ghost story! So to direct one is not only hugely challenging but also exceptionally exciting,” Karan Johar told IANS.
