Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar are set to reunite for another film after Haiwaan. The new project will be produced by Ramesh Taurani of Tips. The collaboration has already generated excitement among fans who are looking forward to seeing the duo work together once again.
According to the latest reports, the film has been titled Wicked Sunny. An insider claimed that the makers believe the title perfectly suits the film’s story, atmosphere and the personality of its lead character.
Reports also suggest that Akshay Kumar will play a comic role that will be different from his performances in Bhooth Bangla and Welcome to the Jungle. The film is said to be a comic thriller. Priyadarshan will direct the project and co-write the screenplay with Rohan Shankar. Production is expected to begin in December this year.
The announcement has created strong interest among Akshay Kumar’s fans. Many have already expressed confidence in Haiwaan and believe Wicked Sunny will offer audiences a fresh cinematic experience with a different style of comedy.
Some fans also believe the wait for the film may not be very long. They pointed out that Priyadarshan is known for completing shoots within a short schedule. If production progresses as planned, they expect the film to arrive in theatres next year.
At the same time, trade experts have advised the team to remain cautious despite the success of Bhooth Bangla. They believe the box office remains unpredictable and that audience acceptance ultimately depends on the quality of the content. According to them, an engaging screenplay will be the key to the film’s success.
Expectations are already high for Haiwaan following the positive response to Bhooth Bangla. If Haiwaan performs well, the pressure on Wicked Sunny to meet audience expectations will only increase. It remains to be seen whether the upcoming film will become another successful collaboration between Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar.
