Two crazy, jobless, horror-film addicts, Major and Gullu, under immense family pressure to find work, hit upon an idea to float a unique ghost-capturing service. They meet a female spirit, Ragini, who makes their business a success, but in return asks them for a dangerous favor, which they are compelled to honor. What lies ahead is a crazy battle between good and evil, laced with funny ghostly encounters and the bizarre outlandish ways in which Team Phone-Bhoot comes out victorious.

Somewhere struggling underneath this mess starring Katrina Kaif, Ishaan Khatter and Siddhant Chaturvedi must have been a movie. But the one we get is a wrong number.

It's wholly dedicated to delivering a good time and yet its also wholly forgettable.

Every argument made in Bollywood’s defence this year can potentially be shattered at the mere mention of Phone Bhoot, the latest in a new wave of horror comedies that is being slipped into the box office’s bloodstream.

Phone Bhoot is an intentionally silly Ghostbusters ripoff that isn't nearly as funny as it thinks it is. This mindless movie needlessly drags out to 130 minutes, which is excruciatingly too long for its flimsy plot.

It is a bit absurd, juvenile and honestly baffling how, sitting in 2022, the film not just got made but is headlined by three capable actors and bankrolled by Excel Entertainment.

Ghostbusters With a Desi Twist: Fresh, Meta, and Hilarious A refreshingly original take in the horror-comedy genre. It takes the basic Ghostbusters concept and flips it on its head by having the ghost team up with the humans, which keeps the dynamic feeling fresh. The meta-humour is easily the highlight; the way it spoofs Bollywood tropes and even pokes fun at famous ads is incredibly clever and self-aware. The energy between the leads kept me hooked throughout the runtime. The acting across the board is great, but newcomers Ishaan Khattar and Siddhant Chaturvedi really carry the film; their high-energy bromance and comedic timing make the whole experience work, while Katrina provides the star power and Jackie the charisma. If you enjoy a movie that isn't afraid to break the fourth wall and mock the industry it belongs to, this is definitely worth a watch. A solid 7.5/10 for being genuinely entertaining and creatively meta.

It's a goofy comedy with references from different TV series, memes, and ads. If you want this movie to make sense, it won't. So, watch it for the sole purpose of entertainment.
