The excitement around Bhooth Bangla just got even bigger after the makers dropped a gripping behind-the-scenes video featuring Akshay Kumar in full action mode. The viral clip shows the actor attempting a high-octane stunt sequence, pulling off a dramatic mid-air jump kick before losing balance during the landing and taking a fall. The moment has quickly caught the attention of fans online, with many praising Akshay for once again pushing himself physically to deliver an authentic cinematic experience.
The behind-the-scenes glimpse has only added to the growing anticipation around Bhooth Bangla, which is already one of the most awaited films of 2026. The film marks the much-talked-about reunion of Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan after 14 years, bringing back one of Bollywood’s most loved actor-director collaborations; a pairing that has delivered several memorable entertainers over the years.

Adding to the buzz, Akshay recently spoke about his clear preference for real action over artificial enhancement, sharing that he does not favour excessive use of VFX or AI in stunt sequences. According to the actor, the thrill of action lies in its realism, and when stunts are performed for real, audiences can actually feel the effort, danger, and energy behind every frame. That belief seems to be reflected in the latest BTS footage, which offers a raw glimpse into the physical risks involved in creating such moments on screen.
Blending supernatural tension with humour, Bhooth Bangla appears to tap into the classic horror-comedy space that audiences have long associated with Priyadarshan’s storytelling sensibilities. The trailer hints at a lively mix of eerie situations, quirky characters, and chaotic comic moments- all set against a fantastical, curse-ridden backdrop.
Backed by Balaji Motion Pictures, a division of Balaji Telefilms Ltd, in association with Cape of Good Films, Bhooth Bangla features an ensemble cast including Wamiqa Gabbi, Paresh Rawal, Tabu, and Rajpal Yadav alongside Akshay Kumar. The film is produced by Akshay Kumar, Shobha Kapoor, and Ektaa R Kapoor. Bhooth Bangla will begin its paid previews in theatres on April 16, 2026.
