The first installment of "Bhool Bhulaiyaa" was an official remake of the 1993 Malayalam film "Manichitrathazhu".
The film also featured Shiney Ahuja, Vidya Balan, Ameesha Patel, Paresh Rawal, Manoj Joshi, Asrani, Rajpal Yadav and Vikram Gokhale. Vidya's performance in "Bhool Bhulaiyaa" is still considered iconic and regarded as one of her best to date.
