The trailer for the upcoming horror-comedy film Kapkapiii is finally out, and it’s getting a lot of attention. Directed by the late Sangeeth Sivan, the film promises a thrilling yet hilarious ride. Sivan, known for his unique storytelling, sadly passed away due to a heart attack before the film’s release.
Star Cast and Genre
Kapkapiii is a Hindi horror-comedy starring Shreyas Talpade, Tusshar Kapoor, Siddhi Idnani, and Sonia Rathee. The movie brings back the comedy duo Shreyas and Tusshar, a pair audiences have missed on the big screen since their popular run in the Golmaal series.
A Trailer That Surprises
The trailer mixes horror and comedy in a very balanced way. Unlike recent horror-comedies that failed, like Bhootni, this one feels fresh and well-crafted.
The comic timing of the entire cast is spot-on, and the background music (BGM) smoothly switches between spooky and funny without being jarring. This transition helps keep viewers engaged from start to finish.

A Remake of a Malayalam Hit
Kapkapiii is the official Hindi remake of the Malayalam blockbuster Romancham (2023), which was one of the highest-grossing Malayalam films of that year. The original film received love from both critics and the audience, raising expectations for the Hindi version.
What’s the Story About?
The plot revolves around a group of friends who decide to play a game involving an Ouija board (called ‘Ouja Board’ in the film). But things go wrong when a real spirit is summoned, and strange events begin to unfold.
The trailer cleverly keeps one big question unanswered: “Who is the ghost?” This mystery adds excitement and makes viewers want to watch the film.
Touches of Nostalgia
For many viewers, Kapkapiii brings back memories of college or hostel days, sitting with friends and sharing ghost stories late into the night. The film seems to tap into that shared experience, which may help it connect better with the youth.
Technical Aspects Look Promising
The trailer showcases solid cinematography, engaging dialogue delivery, and a strong production value. The situational comedy mixed with spooky moments seems well-balanced, offering both laughs and chills.
Release Date
Kapkapiii is set to release in cinemas on 23 May 2025.
With a unique mix of horror and comedy, and a popular cast, the film might just be the entertainer audiences are waiting for.
