Suraj leaned back in his office chair, his fingers brushing against the edge of the fresh script in his hand. It was a story he had carried for years—a film from his past life that had revolutionized horror, seamlessly blending comedy and fear to create an entirely new genre. The script for Bhool Bhulaiyaa was now complete, a project he was determined to bring to life in this alternate world of Akhand Bharat.

The idea of Bhool Bhulaiyaa wasn't just nostalgia for Suraj; it was a masterstroke. In his past life, the film had created a loyal fan base and set a benchmark for horror-comedy. Here, in this world, horror remained a niche genre, barely explored and undervalued. Most filmmakers either leaned toward pure thrillers or supernatural dramas without daring to mix elements. Suraj knew that if executed correctly, this film could shatter the conventional boundaries of storytelling.

The production house was abuzz with activity as he summoned the core team for a meeting. Everyone had assumed that the next project would be another installment in the Blood Bound Chronicles. After all, Ravan's Rampage had only just launched on Bharat+, and the anticipation for more stories in that universe was at an all-time high. However, when Suraj revealed Bhool Bhulaiyaa as the next film, the room fell silent.

Kunal was the first to break the silence, his brows furrowed in confusion. "Are you sure about this, Suraj? Horror... it's not exactly a safe bet. People are still getting used to the concept of horror films here, let alone one mixed with comedy. Why not continue with the Blood Bound Chronicles while the buzz is strong?"

Suraj leaned forward, a calm but confident smile playing on his lips. "I thought you'd say that," he said, pulling out another file from his desk. He placed it in front of Kunal. "This is the script for Lawless. It's the third installment of the Blood Bound Chronicles and requires a set larger than anything we've built before. The world-building alone will take months of pre-production. I want it to be perfect, which is why I plan to start the groundwork now while I focus on Bhool Bhulaiyaa. This way, we won't lose momentum on either project."

Kunal opened the file, flipping through the pages. His expression softened as he began to understand Suraj's strategy. "I see what you're doing," he said. "But Bhool Bhulaiyaa... It's still a standalone. Won't that derail the hype we've built around the cinematic universe?"

Suraj shook his head. "If anything, it'll expand our reach. We've gained a loyal audience with Ravan's Rampage, but we can't rely solely on one franchise. Horror-comedy has universal appeal. It's a genre that can pull in a different demographic, one that might not usually watch gritty, dark stories. If we execute it well, we won't just make a successful film—we'll make history."

The team murmured among themselves, their initial skepticism giving way to cautious optimism. Suraj had proven himself time and again, from reviving a nearly bankrupt company to creating a groundbreaking OTT series. If anyone could make a risky project like this work, it was him.

Suraj addressed their concerns head-on. "Yes, the budget will be higher than what we've spent before—around ₹30 to ₹35 crores. But think about what we're investing in: state-of-the-art set designs, immersive visuals, and top-tier actors who can balance comedy and horror. I won't compromise on quality. We didn't do it for Ravan's Rampage, and we won't do it now."

The room fell silent again, but this time it was out of admiration. They all remembered how Suraj had poured ₹15 crores into an OTT series when most directors would have balked at spending half that amount. His commitment to quality was unmatched, and that trust kept the team united.

As discussions about Bhool Bhulaiyaa progressed, Suraj introduced another idea that caught everyone off guard. "I've been working on something else, too," he said, pulling out a rough sketch from his bag. The drawing depicted a sleek yet rugged design for a clothing brand, complete with bold typography and minimalist imagery. At the bottom, the name Fallen Heroes was scrawled in Suraj's handwriting.

"What's this?" Kunal asked, holding up the sketch.

"A clothing line," Suraj replied. "It's something I've been thinking about for a while. The idea is to create a brand that represents resilience, grit, and honor. The kind of spirit we've celebrated in Ravan's Rampage and Bloody Commando. Imagine this—actors like Kamal Singh and the leads of our movies promoting these clothes. It's not just merchandise; it's a lifestyle brand."

The room buzzed with excitement as everyone examined the sketch. The concept was unlike anything they'd seen before in Bharat. While film merchandise was common, an entire clothing line backed by cinematic themes was revolutionary.

"I'll need you to get this professionally designed," Suraj said to Kunal. "I've drawn it roughly, but a professional artist can bring it to life. The designs will include subtle nods to the stories—like the Shadow Vipers logo or quotes from the films. This isn't just about selling clothes; it's about creating a cultural impact."

Kunal nodded, already making mental notes. "You've really thought this through, haven't you?"

Suraj smirked. "When haven't I?"

By the end of the meeting, the team was buzzing with renewed energy. Pre-production for Lawless would begin immediately, while the casting and location scouting for Bhool Bhulaiyaa would start within the week. Meanwhile, the Fallen Heroes clothing line would be designed and marketed alongside these projects, creating a synergy that could elevate Mythic Productions to new heights.

Later that evening, as Suraj sat in his office, reviewing the script for Bhool Bhulaiyaa one last time, he couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement. This film wasn't just a project; it was a piece of his past life, a testament to his journey as a storyteller.

He glanced at the sketch of the clothing line on his desk and smiled. "Fallen heroes, rising dreams," he murmured. The future was uncertain, but one thing was clear—Suraj was ready to leave a legacy that would transcend time.
