Actors Riteish Deshmukh, Sonakshi Sinha and Saqib Saleem are all set to come together for a horror comedy digital film titled ‘Kakuda’.

The film has commenced with its shoot in Gujarat and is slated to release digitally in early 2022.

‘Kakuda’ explores the legend of a strange curse in a village stuck in time. The trio are confronted with a challenging ghost who makes them question superstition, tradition and love.

“Considering the current situation, a fun comedy film is truly the need of the hour. I loved the script of ‘Kakuda’ from the moment I read it. It’s the kind of movie I would enjoy watching as an audience,” said Sinha in a statement.

“I can’t wait to jump right in and work on the film with Sonakshi and Saqib. I personally love the horror comedy genre and ‘Kakuda’ is a great opportunity for me to explore the part of a ghostbuster,” Deshmukh added.
