Kiara never had horror genre in mind

Actress Kiara Advani has two films in the horror comedy genre coming up over the next months. She will be seen with Akshay Kumar in 'Laxmmi Bomb' and also in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2,' which co-stars Kartik Aaryan.

"I never thought I would work in this (horror-comedy) genre but after 'Laxmmi Bomb' now there is 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2'. These are both very different films, so I am really excited," said Kiara, interacting with the media on Wednesday in Mumbai.

On 'Laxmmi Bomb,' her horror comedy with Akshay Kumar, she said: "We are putting our best foot forward and we hope to make it a crackling entertainer, because I am sure the expectations will be high. I am a huge fan of Akshay (Kumar) sir's 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa'. That was the first horror-comedy film that I ever watched."

Kartik Aaryan essays the starring role in 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2,' and Kiara informs the unit has started shooting for the film. "We have started shooting for the film because the mahurat which we got was really auspicious and it was a super amazing day of shoot.

I am really excited to start shooting for the film again. I am really excited to work with (director) Anees (Bazmee) sir and Kartik (Aaryan) and take the franchise forward," she added.
