Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan – together in one film? Nope, you’re not dreaming. After almost two decades, the OG duo is back, and honestly, this reunion might just break the internet and the box office. The Khiladi and The Nawab, these two have worked their magic in six iconic films before, and now they’re ready to slay again in a high-octane thriller. Read on to know the title.
Saif Ali Khan & Akshay Kumar’s Upcoming Film Gets A Title!
The film is titled Haiwaan, which translates to beast, and the vibes? Dark, and 100% intense. The title alone has thriller lovers foaming at the mouth, and with Akshay and Saif leading the charge, we know this one isn’t going to be your usual popcorn flick. This is a full-throttle cinematic hurricane coming our way.
Directed by Priyadarshan, the man who gave us comedy gold, is now diving headfirst into pulse-pounding thriller territory. We’re already obsessed with the switch-up. The director clearly isn’t here to play it safe, he’s ready to unleash the Haiwaan within.
Not Just a Title – It’s a Whole Mood
Sources say the team locked in the title after intense brainstorming, and honestly, it couldn’t be more perfect. The word Haiwaan apparently nails the essence of both the plot and the characters. The source said, “The team felt this describes their subject the best, and conveys exactly how Priyadarshan sees it – as an edge-of-the-seat thriller. There were other titles in contention, but this one clicked unanimously, given the characters the lead actors play.”
From Tashan to Haiwaan: 17 Years Later & Still Iconic
Their last full-blown collaboration was Tashan in 2008 and now, 17 years later, the kings are back to remind everyone how it’s really done. With their signature charm, wit, and screen-commanding presence, Akshay and Saif are about to create fireworks all over again, this time with a dark, gritty twist.
When’s The Madness Starting?
Production for Haiwaan kicks off this August, and we’re already refreshing our timelines for leaked BTS shots. The release? Set for 2026. Yes, the wait is long, but when the Khiladi and the Nawab come together under one explosive thriller, you know it’s going to be worth every second.
Saif, fresh off his slick turn in Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins, is bringing that brooding energy. Akshay, who just wrapped up his horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla with the same director, is shifting gears into beast mode. With both actors in reinvention mode, this team-up is going to be anything but predictable.
