The film stars the two biggest superstars of Hindi Film Industry. All the allegations and rumours about rivalry between Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan are proved wrong as they join in to act in Bhootnath. The star cast also includes Satish Shah and Rajpal Yadav. Co-produced by Studio 18 and B R Films, Bhootnath is directed by Vivek Sharma. The music of the film is composed by the Ta Ra Rum Pum duo Vishal-Shekhar.

Bhootnath comes across as a charismatic and endearing saga of friendship between a kid and a spirit. Shahrukh Khan and Juhi Chawla play a couple who move into their new house – the Nath Villa, in Goa, with their son Banku. Unfortunately, a ghost (Amitabh Bachchan) awaits them in the house, who is not happy with his new companions.
