Bhoothnath

Bhoothnath (2008) is an Indian family comedy about a haunting you can watch online on iFILM. Vivek Sharma directs, and Amitabh Bachchan anchors the whole thing as a grumpy old ghost.

A family moves into a long-avoided mansion in Goa, a place the neighbours swear is cursed. Little Banku, unlike every nervous adult around him, simply doesn't believe in ghosts — so when a scary old man appears, he isn't frightened at all and decides this must be an angel. That mix-up blossoms into a genuine friendship that slowly thaws the spirit's bitterness. Shah Rukh Khan turns up in a short but memorable role, Juhi Chawla plays Banku's mother, and Priyanshu Chatterjee arrives as the ghost's son, whose visit unlocks why the old man never found peace. It's a warm Bollywood crowd-pleaser, songs and all, built for a family night with the kids and an honest lump in the throat by the end. Stream Bhoothnath (2008) online on iFILM.
