Akshay Kumar who was last seen in Ali Abbas Zafar's action film 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' alongside Tiger Shroff which is currently running in theatres is set to reunite with Priyadarshan after 14 years from their last film.

The new project will be backed by Ektaa R Kapoor and is going to be a horror fantasy. 

The source was quoted saying, “Now that I am done with my docu-series on the Ram Mandir’s history, my most important film on which I am beginning work is the one with Akshay, produced by Ekta Kapoor. It is a horror fantasy with humour.”

The source further added, “That was a psychological thriller, but this one will be fantasy, in the backdrop of black magic, the oldest superstition of India. It is always a pleasure collaborating with Akshay. From our first film to this one, it has always turned out well with him, he handles the emotions so well. I was waiting for a good subject to get back with him, and this one I feel will be that.”

Meanwhile, Akshay is shooting for his upcoming film 'Welcome to the Jugle' which is the third sequel of the 'Welcome' franchise. The film will aslo star Arshad Warsi, Disha Patani, Jacqueliene Fernandez and Sanjay Dutt along with Raveena Tandon, Shreays Talpade and others.
