The popular actor-director duo of Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan have teamed up for two new films, both of which will be produced by Ramesh Taurani. The first film, a comedy, is set to go on floors in January 2027, with Akshay starring in the lead role. He will also be starring in the sequel to Bhoot Police, which is being directed by Priyadarshan.
Taurani confirmed the news, saying, 'Yes, we are producing both the films with Akshay and Priyadarshan.' The two have a long history of collaboration, having worked together on hits like Hera Pheri, Garam Masala, Bhagam Bhag, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, De Dana Dan, and Khatta Meetha.
Apart from these projects, Akshay and Priyadarshan have also collaborated on the recently released Bhoot Bangla and are working on Haiwaan and Hera Pheri 3, though the status of the latter remains unclear.
