Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], April 7: Actors Tusshar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade, last seen together in the 2008 hit Golmaal Returns, are reuniting for a special project — ‘Kapkapiii’, the final film helmed by the late director Sangeeth Sivan.
A blend of horror and comedy, Kapkapiii is set to release in theatres on May 23, marking a tribute to the late filmmaker known for cult hits like Kya Kool Hain Hum and Apna Sapna Money Money.
An Ode to Sangeeth Sivan’s Vision
The film is produced by Jayesh Patel and Umesh Kumar Bansal under Bravo Entertainment, and presented by Zee Studios. The screenplay has been crafted by Saurabh Anand and Kumar Priyadarshi.
Actor Shreyas Talpade, speaking emotionally about the project, shared:
“As the name suggests, Kapkapiii is about goosebumps — the kind you get just before the fear fully kicks in. It’s one of the best horror comedies by Sangeeth Sivan sir. I miss him dearly. He should’ve been here to witness the release of the film he was so passionate about. He was like a father figure to me with a terrific sense of filmmaking.”
Tusshar Kapoor also reflected on the film’s unique flavor:
“Kapkapiii has a very realistic setting, and the characters are extremely relatable. The horror element revolves around a Ouija board, something not often explored in Hindi cinema.”
A Promising Horror-Comedy
Producer Jayesh Patel emphasized the director’s lasting imprint on the film:
“Sangeeth ji had already given us the completed first cut of the film, so what you’ll see on screen is entirely his vision. After his untimely demise, it became more than just a film — it became a collective promise to finish what he started.”
“Kapkapiii is not your typical horror-comedy. It’s wild, unfiltered, and rooted in characters that feel hilariously familiar. It plays with fear the way a prankster plays with a flashlight in the dark — never predictable, always a little wicked.”
Ensemble Cast
The film also stars Sonia Rathee, Siddhi Idnani, Jay Thakkar, Varun Pandey, Dherendra Tiwari, Dinkar Sharma, and Abishek Kumar, promising a fresh and dynamic ensemble for this chilling yet humorous ride.
With a nostalgic pairing, a visionary director’s final touch, and a genre that continues to intrigue audiences, Kapkapiii is shaping up to be a must-watch this summer.
