Akshay Kumar, Priyadarshan Tip Haiwaan for August, Say Hera Pheri 3 Unclear

The guidance sets early expectations without resolving the Hera Pheri rights dispute.

Overview

  • During Bhooth Bangla promotions, the duo said Haiwaan should arrive about 90 days later, roughly in August, though no date is set.
  • Bhooth Bangla is slated for a theatrical release on April 10 and marks their first film together in more than a decade.
  • Pinkvilla reports Haiwaan has wrapped filming with Akshay Kumar in a negative role and Saif Ali Khan as the protagonist.
  • Filmfare says Saif’s character is written as visually impaired and describes Haiwaan as an adaptation of the 2016 Malayalam thriller Oppam with new elements.
  • Asked about Hera Pheri 3, they said they have no update as a rights fight continues, with Vijay Kumar telling Pinkvilla he holds the IP and accusing Firoz Nadiadwala of trying to sell it.
