Bollywood fans were treated to a nostalgic moment today as Suniel Shetty took to his X profile to share a throwback picture with his longtime friend and co-star Akshay Kumar. Wishing the superstar on his 58th birthday, Shetty’s post was warm, funny, and full of memories. Alongside the old photo, he penned a message celebrating their journey from the action-packed 1990s to the present, highlighting the “madness, memories, hustle, and hugs” that shaped their enduring camaraderie.
Their friendship harks back to the golden era of 90s action cinema, when both carved a niche in Bollywood with hits like Mohra (1994) and the cult-classic comedy Hera Pheri (2000). At a time when the film industry often thrived on rivalries, Akshay and Suniel chose to build a bond rooted in trust and mutual respect, giving fans an on-screen pairing that continues to endure.
Today, as Akshay celebrates another milestone, fans couldn’t help but join in the nostalgia, sharing clips, photos, and memories of the duo. What makes this moment even more special is that both actors are set to reunite on the silver screen soon, reviving two of their most beloved franchises.
On the professional front, Akshay Kumar is keeping busy with exciting projects including Jolly LLB 3, Bhooth Bangla, and the much-talked-about Haiwaan. As if that wasn’t enough, fans are eagerly awaiting his reunion with Suniel Shetty in Hera Pheri 3 and Welcome 3, both promising laughter, chaos, and the same iconic energy their earlier films carried.
From sharing intense shoot schedules in the 90s to still standing side by side decades later, Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty’s bond is a reminder that some partnerships only grow stronger with time. For audiences, their off-screen brotherhood is just as cherished as their onscreen magic—making Shetty’s birthday post more than just a wish; it’s a celebration of friendship and legacy.
