The streak started with Hera Pheri and continued till Katta Meeta in 2010. Akshay-Priyadarshan combo has done six movies so far, all of them were super duper hits, but for some reason they didn’t work together after Katta Meeta.

Again after 14 years, this blockbuster pair is ready to create records. This hit combo is once again coming with a horror comedy. Bollywood hero Akshay is doing Bhoot Bangla with Priyadarshan who is in Plaplu. The makers announced the release date just as Bhoot Bangla went on the sets. The official announcement was made as a precautionary measure against the recent release date clashes with other heroes and films. It is going to be released on April 2, 2026. After Katta Meeta, Priyadarshan has been doing movies in Mollywood and Bollywood, but he has not been able to show his mark. There are few blockbuster movies but all of them went to the account of heroes. It would be the biggest disaster if it was done with a star hero like Mohanlal. At the same time, Khiladi Hero called and made an offer. Akshay gave a chance even though his diary was full. This hit combo is coming to scare the audience with horror comedy like Bhoot Bangla.
