After working with bigger banners with little or no success, Emraan Hashmi is returning to his roots. The actor, who will be seen in Vikram Bhatt’s Raaz Reboot, has also signed the fourth film in the super-successful Murder series titled ‘Murder 4’ under the same director.
While there are reports that the story is inspired from the Sheena Bora murder case, involving prime suspect Indrani Mukerjea, Vikram Bhatt has said a similar script was written by Mahesh Bhatt before the shocking real-life murder case hit headlines.
“Mahesh Bhatt had confessed last year, soon after the Sheena Bora murder case broke, that he was shocked by the similarities in his script, then titled ‘Ab Raat Guzarnewali Hai’, and the headline-grabbing events. similar in its sensibilities” Vikram said.
Meanwhile, producer Mahesh Bhatt said Murder 4 will be bigger and better than the previous films in the series. The film is expected to go on floors towards the end of the year and release in 2017.
“It’s too early to reveal details of his character but it’s a strong role and will reinvent his image, along with the Azhar biopic. I’m just waiting for Vikram to complete Raaz Reboot and then we will plan this one. It’s been a lucrative franchise for us and we have to make Murder 4 bigger and better” Mahesh Bhatt said.
These Bhatts need to stop making these quasi sequels and make original products.
All Raj Series films are Awesome ! Specially the 1st one !
Emraan Hasmi is better then Your so called Bhai.
He done awesome movies like…..Dil to Baccha Hai Ji, Once Upon A time in Mumbai, Aawarapan, Raaz 3, Murder & Murder 2, name so few….
if he gives 5-6 flop movie in recent time. …so what he is one of the Best Actor of Bollywood.
Emraan is crap actor. Azhar first look was bad. Arjun was the better choice.
Emraan will be superb in Azhar & Raaz 4
Script of Murder , murder 2 , murder 3 and murder 4 are totally different and aloof from each other..
@BS though bhatts make sequel but there stories and plot are pretty different.
from Murder to HAK , Emraan Hashmi dominated in music .
Bigger banners have cheated on Emraan. Karan johar cheated him by delaying the film n giving him a cameo role in Ungli.
Other than Dharma, emraan did films with only Balaji, in whcih he was hugely successful , like ouatim, tdp @Indicine ! .
@BS
Bhatts sequels have different plot than there prequels ! While ur favourite Dharma banner dishes the same story in the name of new films , just like the Kapoor and sons trailer which is just SOTY 2 ! . And hskd is just ddlj2. Or yjhd ,htp,emauet all r same.
Bakwas… Bhatts are biggest curse on Indian cinema along with Farah khan and Family…
I hope the shooting starts May end and it ends in August.
I am pegging for a Christmas release for Murder 4 this year end !
Game is ON !!
Azhar , Raaz 4 and Murder 4. 3 huge grossers.. Raaz 4 n murder 4 defo.
Script of Murder 4 looks amazing just lik Murder 2 and murder!
These Big Banners gave Emraan films with bad script. But Azhar gonna change everything. Loved his Look of Azhar.
Hahaha. When nothing works start doing sequels. But even sequels r not safe. Both ghayal once again & kkhh3 failed at the bo
This is Huge. Murder2 is one of my favourite thrillers. Also murder3 had maverick plot. Though it failed.
All the best. Hope Azhar biopic clicks somehow, Raaz 4 will do well as it is a horror film.
Murder 4 can strike big because of reality-based plot.
Raaz 4 is one of my must watch flm this year and waiting 4 it
Emraan Hashmi is worst actor.
Emraan hashmi was successful only with bhatts, that’s a fact. I don’t remember any successful film of him where he was a lead hero without bhatts.
Emraan will finally have back to back hits after series of flops.
Raaz 4 and Murder 4 are sure shots since they are hits series,can’t wait for both of them music albums.
@sky
OUATIM, TDP , GANGSTER , AkSAR all successful .
@arjun Youngistan Fan
when nothing works, arjun kapoor will bcum servant of Kjo,alia and chetan bhagat.

(Emraan Hater) …. you successfully made
other users of indicine go hate Emraan !
congratulations
@KK yes Aksar was the one without bhatts.
TDP was a women oriented film when Emraan wasn’t the only lead actor, it had Nasser also and the credit of success goes to Vidya balan as it was a biopic on silk smita.
Ouatim he was supporting actor there though was outstanding but Ajay was the main lead.
Gangster was directed by Anurag basu and produce by bhatts.
i don’t watch any horror movie..because
watching arjun kapoor films is itself an
horror xperience…..!!…
Realy happy to listen hope murder script will good as murder 2.
No doubt Emraan Hashmi is a good actor. He is versatile also. He was superb in Awarapan, OUATIM & Shanghai but he need good scripts.
He is nothing without bhatts. Flop 10 crore club actor.
Right decision taken by emran hasmi finally he is returning with some interesting project
best of luck bro
Waiting for announcemnt of Jannat 3
This one will surely give Emran much needed success at BO.Not confident about Azhar but confident about RAAZ 4
Not interested about raaz series..
Azhar biopic
Raaz 4
Murder 4
Interesting lineup for Emraan Hashmi. Waiting for Azar biopic & Raaz 4…
