Bollywood star Emraan Hashmi, known for his unique film choices and chart-topping music, is set to return to the horror genre with his upcoming film ‘Rooh’.
Hashmi emphasized the crucial role music plays in connecting audiences with his cinematic ventures.
Speaking about the musical vision for ‘Rooh’, Emraan stated, “Collaborating with Kumar Taurani on this film feels like destiny. Music has always been an integral part of how audiences connect with my films. With ‘Rooh’, we aim for music that truly captures the film’s essence – deeply romantic, haunting, and rooted in raw emotion.” This statement highlights Hashmi’s consistent belief in the power of melodies to elevate storytelling, a trademark often associated with his successful filmography.
Kumar Taurani of Tips Films and Tips Music is partnering with Emraan for ‘Rooh’, which is described as a musical horror film prioritizing emotional depth.

We’ve had many successful collaborations since, and with ‘Rooh’, we’re excited to recreate that magic. I’m also thrilled to work with Sunny Khanna and Vikram Khakhar to bring a compelling theatrical experience back to audiences.”
Directed by Mayank Sharma and written by Vishal Kapoor and Mayank Sharma, ‘Rooh’ promises a blend of horror and romance, with music as a central narrative element. The film, presented by Tips Films and an A Vicked Films Production, is slated for a 2027 theatrical release in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, aiming for a wide regional appeal.
