    What's the story

    On Monday, Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar celebrated his 57th birthday by announcing his upcoming horror film, Bhooth Bangla.

    The movie marks his reunion with renowned director Priyadarshan after a 14-year hiatus.

    Sharing the first look of the film on social media, Kumar expressed his excitement about this "dream collaboration."

    He also unveiled a motion poster featuring him with a black cat on his shoulders.

    Announcement

    'Can't wait to share this incredible journey with you all'

    Kumar expressed his gratitude for the birthday wishes and shared his excitement about the upcoming project.

    He wrote, "Thank you for your love on my birthday, year after year! Celebrating this year with the first look of Bhooth Bangla!"

    "I'm beyond excited to join forces with Priyadarshan again after 14 years. This dream collaboration has been a long time coming...can't wait to share this incredible journey with you all."

    Past success

    Kumar and Priyadarshan's successful past collaborations

    Kumar and Priyadarshan have previously collaborated on several successful projects.

    Their partnership began with Hera Pheri in 2000, which also starred Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty. The film was a commercial success and has since become a cult classic.

    They later worked together on Garam Masala (2005), Bhagam Bhag (2006), Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007), De Dana Dan (2009), Khatta Meetha (2010).

    New venture

    'Bhooth Bangla' marks a new genre for the duo

    While their previous collaborations have primarily been in the comedy genre, Bhooth Bangla will mark a departure as it delves into horror.

    Notably, this is not Kumar's first foray into horror; he previously starred in films like Laxmii and Bhool Bhulaiyaa.

    The latter was also directed by Priyadarshan.

    The release date and other details about Bhooth Bangla are yet to be announced.
