Akshay Kumar And Saif Ali Khan’s Haiwaan
Directed by Priyadarshan, the upcoming thriller could be a Hindi remake of the 2016 Malayalam film Oppam, starring Mohanlal. The original film, which was partially inspired by Martin Scorsese’s 1991 classic Cape Fear and the 2011 Korean thriller Blind, is a key reference for this speculation. Haiwaan will be produced by KVN Productions in collaboration with Thespian Films and jointly produced by Venkat K Narayana and Shailaja Desai Fenn.
In the film, Akshay Kumar will reportedly take on the role of the villain in Haiwaan, and Saif will portray a visually impaired character in the film. He confirmed the same with excitement, stating, “Yes, I am doing a film with Priyadarshan next. I play a blind guy. Very exciting,” reported Bollywood Hungama.
Haiwaan promises a mix of horror and laughter that fans have been eagerly waiting for. With the first schedule now complete, excitement around the film is only set to grow.
