Actor Nitanshi Goel has completed the shoot for her next feature film, a horror-comedy backed by producer Ektaa R Kapoor. While the makers are yet to officially reveal the title, cast details or release timeline, the project has already sparked curiosity due to its genre blend and Nitanshi’s casting in a new space.

Nitanshi Goel wraps shoot for Ektaa Kapoor-backed horror comedy; actress steps into a new genre

According to sources associated with the production, Nitanshi will be seen in a character that combines innocence with an unusual supernatural layer. The role is said to offer multiple shades, allowing the actor to explore both light-hearted and dramatic moments within the same narrative. If confirmed, the film will mark Nitanshi’s first major outing in the horror-comedy genre.

The horror-comedy space has emerged as one of the more successful commercial genres in recent years, especially in Hindi cinema. Films such as Stree, Roohi, Bhediya and Munjya have shown strong audience interest in stories that mix humour, folklore and supernatural elements. Nitanshi’s entry into the genre could therefore be seen as a strategic next step in her growing career.

Nitanshi Goel has steadily built visibility across platforms and earning praise for her screen presence at a young age. She drew wider attention with her performance in Laapataa Ladies, which helped position her among promising young actors to watch. Since then, industry interest around her future choices has increased.

For producer Ektaa Kapoor, the horror space is also familiar territory. Over the years, she has backed several supernatural and thriller-based projects across television and cinema. From cult TV successes built around paranormal themes to films such as Krishna Cottage and Ragini MMS, Kapoor has often tapped into genres that appeal strongly to younger audiences. Her move into a fresh horror-comedy with a younger lead continues that trend.

Insiders suggest the upcoming film aims to combine mainstream entertainment with a character-driven narrative, though the makers have maintained secrecy around the central plot. That has only added to speculation around the film’s premise and supporting cast.

An official announcement is expected in the coming weeks. Until then, Nitanshi Goel’s completed shoot for the untitled Ektaa Kapoor-backed horror comedy has already become a talking point, with many keen to see the actor in a completely different avatar on screen.
