The trailer for Akshay Kumar-led Khel Khel Mein was released on Friday. Directed by Mudassar Aziz, this comedy features a star-studded cast of Ammy Virk, Vaani Kapoor, Taapsee Pannu, Fardeen Khan, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal. A remake of the 2016 Italian film Perfect Strangers, the movie centers on three couples who engage in a game where they place their phones on the table, sharing all their messages and calls with the group. Here's a breakdown of the trailer.
Trailer breakdown: Phones become weapons in this high-stakes game
The three-minute trailer is a chaotic yet captivating whirlwind introducing us to couples and friends who dare to play a risky game: their phones become "public property" for one night. The rules are simple: In this game, any phone that rings or receives a message must have its contents read aloud to everyone—a gamble that quickly spirals into a night of unveiled secrets, shocking twists, and endless entertainment.

'Khel Khel Mein' continues Kumar's collaborations with Kapoor, Pannu
The film marks Kumar's second collaboration with Kapoor following Bell Bottom, and his fourth collaboration with Pannu after Baby, Naam Shabana, and Mission Mangal. The film also marks the return of Kumar to comedy and serves as a comeback for Khan on the big screen, who recently appeared in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Netflix series Heeramandi. The movie, marking the first collaboration between Kumar and director Aziz, is slated to hit theaters on August 15.
'Khel Khel Mein' to face box office competition
Khel Khel Mein will face stiff box office competition from Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor's Stree 2, as well as John Abraham and Sharvari's Vedaa. Despite Kumar's previous films, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and Sarfira, released earlier this year, not setting the box office alight, there is considerable interest in seeing whether Khel Khel Mein will change his box office fortunes.
