Bhoot: Part One opened to average reviews as it hit the theatres on February 21. In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave 1.5 stars (out of 5) to Bhoot: Part One and wrote: "Weighed down by a contrived storyline that does not stand a ghost of a chance of drifting close to being convincing, Bhoot: Part One must be deemed to be a wasted effort for director of photography Pushkar Singh and sound designer Anish John. They spare no effort to whip up fear with lighting variations, camera movements and acoustic effects that range from the commonplace to the eerie. But no amount of atmospheric backup can make up for the lack of substance at the heart of the movie."
Bhoot: Part One also stars Bhumi Pednekar and Ashutosh Rana in leading roles. The film is directed by Bhanu Pratap Singh and produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions.
