In an exciting development for Bollywood fans, Akshay Kumar has announced his next project, BhoothBangla. Promising a hilarious blend of comedy and horror, this film is already one of the most eagerly awaited releases of 2025. This film will mark the return of the iconic Akshay Kumar-Priyadarshan duo after 14 long years. In an exciting update, it has been announced that BhoothBangla will also bring back the industry's most beloved comedic actors, Paresh Rawal, Asrani, and Rajpal Yadav.


A Reunion of Legends: Akshay Kumar, Paresh Rawal, and Rajpal Yadav

The collaboration between Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan is nothing short of legendary. Over the years, the actor-director duo has delivered some of Bollywood's most memorable comedies, including Hera Pheri (2000), Garam Masala (2005), and Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007). Almost all of these films have gone on to become cult classics, cherished by audiences even today. BhoothBangla marks their seventh collaboration, and expectations are sky-high.

In a recent update, Bhooth Bangla has roped in some of Priyadarshan's favourite actors, adding even more excitement to the project. In a reunion that fans are calling a 'dream come true,' Akshay Kumar will be joined by his original Bhool Bhulaiyaa co-stars Paresh Rawal, Asrani, and Rajpal Yadav.

These actors, known for their impeccable comic timing, have been instrumental in elevating the comedy in many Priyadarshan films such as De Dana Dan, Khatta Meetha, and Bhaagam Bhag. Their legendary teamwork has always been a major highlight, delivering rib-tickling performances that leave audiences in splits.

Priyadarshan has a unique knack for creating comedy films with a perfect balance of humour, emotion, and chaos. Akshay Kumar, often cast as the quintessential Priyadarshan hero, shines in roles that see him getting entangled in a series of comedic errors. Their collaborations have stood the test of time, with their films continuing to generate laughter across generations.

Fans are especially thrilled about this reunion, with many hailing it as the return of the "OG comedy team." Given their track record, BhoothBangla is already shaping up to be a laughter riot.

BhoothBangla is a perfect script that warrants their reunion, as every character has a trait that would evoke laughter.'

The film will be produced by Ekta Kapoor, and it's expected to go on floors by early 2025. Pre-production is already in full swing, with the makers actively finalising the rest of the cast. While Paresh Rawal, Asrani, and Rajpal Yadav are confirmed, the team is currently looking to cast three key female roles to round out the ensemble.
