The star-studded cast of Haiwaan, the much-anticipated action drama directed by veteran filmmaker Priyadarshan, has officially wrapped the Ooty leg of its outdoor schedule. Featuring powerhouse performers Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan, Saiyami Kher, and Shriya Pilgaonkar, the film has already sparked major buzz—especially as it marks the grand on-screen reunion of Akshay and Saif after nearly two decades.
Saiyami Kher took to social media to share a heartfelt post from the picturesque sets of Ooty. Alongside a candid picture with her co-stars, she wrote, “Wrapped the Ooty schedule of Haiwaan with a heart full of gratitude. @akshaykumar Sir & Saif Sir’s warmth, wit & generosity made it equal parts learning & laughter. Memories for a lifetime.” She went on to praise director Priyadarshan for creating a welcoming and collaborative environment, calling the experience both enriching and unforgettable.
The film’s first shooting leg began in Kochi and Vagamon before moving to Ooty. With lush landscapes and a talented ensemble cast, the crew now heads back to Mumbai for the next phase of filming.
What makes Haiwaan even more special is the reunion of Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan—two actors who once ruled the ‘90s and early 2000s with iconic hits like Main Khiladi Tu Anari, Yeh Dillagi, Tu Chor Main Sipahi, and Tashan. Their effortless chemistry, comic timing, and action flair made them one of the most-loved duos of the era. Fans are ecstatic to see them together again on the big screen after a 17-year hiatus.
Set against a gripping storyline, Haiwaan is expected to be a blend of action, drama, and emotional depth—hallmarks of Priyadarshan’s storytelling. With a cast this seasoned and a director known for delivering cinematic hits, expectations are sky-high.
Produced by Venkat K. Narayana and Shailaja Fenn under KVN Productions in collaboration with Thespian Films, Haiwaan is slated for a 2026 release.
