Sajid Khan and Akshay Kumar could be heading for a much-awaited reunion. Industry sources indicate the filmmaker and actor will team up for a new project. The film would mark their first collaboration in more than a decade. The duo last worked together on Housefull 2. A source close to the development claims that the new project has received the green light from its production house. Sajid is currently busy with Hero Ki Horrorine. The film marks the Bollywood debut of Yashvardhan Ahuja. Nitanshi Goel stars opposite him.
Once the project is completed, Sajid is set to begin work on his film with Akshay. The team is reportedly planning to shoot the project in London. The team is keeping details about the film under wraps. The producers have yet to reveal the genre and title. Sajid and Akshay previously shared a successful professional partnership. They worked together on Heyy Babyy, Housefull and Housefull 2. Their collaboration produced several popular entertainers.
However, their partnership came to a halt after Sajid stepped down from Housefull 4 in 2018. The filmmaker had faced allegations during the #MeToo movement. Akshay had previously said he would work with Sajid again if Sajid resolved the matter. Sajid is now making his return to direction with Hero Ki Horrorine. The reported reunion with Akshay could therefore mark another major step in his comeback. For now, the makers have not officially announced the project. Further details about the cast, title and storyline are expected to emerge later.
