Bollywood's most celebrated duo Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar will collaborate once more as they will make their ninth collaboration together. Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar are going to work together again after Hera Pheri 3, which is the comedy thriller film produced by Tips Films.
The film will go on floors in December 2026 and pre‑production is already in motion. A reunion has generated tons of buzz among fans and their previous hits Hera Pheri, Bhool Bhulaiyaa and Garam Masala are all coming with them. Their ninth collaboration promises to bring a new mix of wittiness and entertainment to our screen.
Priyadarshan has collaborated with writer Rohan Shankar on the screenplay. Shankar, who has previously worked with Bhooth Bangla, will add a little quirky elements to the story. The filmmaker says this is a “unique combination of comedy and thrills unlike anything he’s ever made before,” a departure from his usual comedic style into a more experimental zone.
If Akshay Kumar is able to make it through genre and get his comic timing right, it will really help to bring his energy to the film. Industry insiders say this is one of the most exciting comedy thrillers of the past few years given Priyadarshan’s storytelling skills and Akshay’s mass appeal.
The announcement has already stirred up hopes across Bollywood and fans are waiting to see if Priyadarshan can make a new comedy with thriller aspects. Also casting for the supporting roles will be completed in the next few months in the next phase of the project.
But Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar’s ninth collaboration is going to be a high-energy show and laughter-fueled entertainment with suspense in it. With Tips Films and co‑written with Rohan Shankar, it is a project that is going to be one of the most eagerly awaited releases of 2027. As filming starts in December 2026, we can expect another memorable moment from this legendary director-actor duo’s film.
