'Roohi welcomes 'Bhediya' to its scary world. In cinemas 14th April, 2022," she captioned the teaser.
Presented by Jio Studios and Vijan's Maddock Films, Bhediya also stars Abhishek Banerjee of Paatal Lok fame and Angrezi Medium star Deepak Dobriyal.
The film is written by Niren Bhatt, who had earlier penned films like Bala and Made In China.
Bhediya will reunite Dhawan with Sanon after Rohit Shetty's 2015 comedy, Dilwale.
Meanwhile, Roohi is scheduled to be released theatrically on March 11. The film, directed by Hardik Mehta, revolves around a singing ghost who puts grooms to sleep so it can possess their brides.
It will be one of the first Bollywood projects to arrive in theatres after the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting allowed cinema halls across the country to operate at full capacity from February 1 with adherence to Covid-19 safety protocols
