Trivia

  • The film is a remake of the Malayalam film 'Manichitrathazhu', which also inspired remakes in several other Indian languages.
  • Akshay Kumar was not the first choice for the role of Dr. Aditya; the director initially considered other actors for the part.
  • The iconic 'Mere Dholna' song was originally composed for a different film but was later included in this movie.
  • The palace set was built from scratch in Mumbai's Film City to replicate an ancestral haveli, as shooting in an actual palace was not feasible.
  • Vidya Balan prepared for her dual role by studying split personality disorder and working with a dance coach for the traditional moves.
  • The film's climax scene involving the mirror and the trishul was shot in a single take to maintain suspense and continuity.
  • Despite being a horror-comedy, it performed exceptionally well at the box office, becoming one of the highest-grossing Hindi films of 2007.
