Bhoothnath is one of the most loved and popular films which was released in 2008. The supernatural comedy film starred Amitabh Bachchan playing the role of a ghost. Well, mention of the film would remain incomplete if we don’t talk about the little kiddo, Banku who won the hearts of the audience with his innocent screen presence. From his fun antics and demands from Bhoothnath to emotional scenes, the little kiddo surely managed to keep the audience connected to him. The film also had Juhi Chawla playing the role of Banku's mother.
