Hands at work
Netizens got busy as soon as the poster of the Vicky Kaushal and Bhumi Pednekar-starrer Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship (above) released. A section of social media users felt it reminded them of the motion poster of Lijo Jose Pellissery's 2019 critically-acclaimed Malayalam film Jallikattu (top). They stated that Bollywood lacks originality, and after remaking South hits, they are now recreating the posters as well.
