Bhatt produced more films in the coming years, such as, Sir (1993) starring Naseeruddin Shah, Naajayaz (1995), Criminal (1995), and Fareb (1996). The 1998 film Ghulam, was yet another success for the producer.[3] In 1999, Sangharsh starring Preity Zinta and Akshay Kumar was another successful venture for the producer, while the horror films Raaz (2002), and its sequel Raaz – The Mystery Continues (2009), both were received positively. In 2004, he introduced his nephew, Emraan Hashmi, on the big screen, with the film, Murder, also starring Mallika Sherawat.
