Tabu describes familiar on-set rhythms with Priyadarshan alongside Akshay to signal a busy 2026.

Overview

  • The actor confirms her first onscreen pairing with Akshay Kumar since the Hera Pheri era, marking a 25-year gap.
  • She says Priyadarshan remains an impatient, vocal, one-take director, reflecting continuity in his working style.
  • Tabu notes Akshay’s habits are unchanged, citing his 4 am starts, early wrap-ups, no-party routine and mantra of “jaldi sona chahiye.”
  • She finished two films in 2025—Bhooth Bangla and a Puri Jagannadh project with Vijay Sethupathi—with both slated to arrive in 2026, including regional-language releases for the latter.
  • News18 reports Bhooth Bangla is targeting an April 2026 theatrical release with Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav, backed by Balaji Telefilms.
