Actors Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan have reunited on screen after nearly two decades. The duo has teamed up with veteran filmmaker Priyadarshan for an upcoming thriller titled 'Haiwaan'. The film, which officially began production today in Kochi, Kerala, is reportedly the Hindi adaptation of the 2016 Malayalam hit 'Oppam', which originally starred Mohanlal.

Akshay shared a behind-the-scenes video from the film’s set, playfully teasing co-star Saif. Sporting a T-shirt emblazoned with the word “Saint”, he quipped, “I know this devil very well,”



hinting at the camaraderie the two actors share. The video has already sparked nostalgia among fans, who fondly remember the duo from films like 'Main Khiladi Tu Anari', 'Yeh Dillagi', 'Tu Chor Main Sipahi' and 'Tashan'.

Sharing the video, Akshay wrote in the caption, “Hum sab hi hain thode se shaitaan Koi upar se Saint, koi andar se 'Haiwaan' :)) Starting the shoot for #Haiwaan today with my absolute favourite captain of the ship, @priyadarshan.official Sir. Great to be working with Saif after nearly 18 years. Let’s get the haiwaniyat rolling!! (sic)"
