The magical duo of Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar are all set to unite for a comedy which will go on floors in 2022. Priyadarshan said he was supposed to begin the film with Kumar this year but the project got pushed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The actor-filmmaker duo has worked on several acclaimed comedies like, Hera Pheri, Garam Masala, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa.

Yesterday, Akki shared a a happy picture with the filmmaker from the sets of Raksha Bandhan, which will be directed by Aanand L Rai. "When a guy with as brilliant a sense of humour as @priyadarshandir comes calling, a hard-work day becomes a laugh-hard day! #HappinessBTS," Akshay tweeted on Saturday with a picture of the two. Akshay was seen in a pink shirt, wearing a moustache. Priyadarshan was seen in a black shirt with a blue mask. Akshay's upcoming movies include Sooryavanshi, Raksha Bandhan, Prithviraj, Bell Bottom, Ram Setu and Bachchan Pandey. He will also be seen in Filhaal 2, the song that will mark his second music video after the 2019 released hit song Filhaal. The music video that also features Nupur Sanon will release on July 6.
