Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan are set to star together in the upcoming thriller Haiwaan, directed by Priyadarshan. The makers have announced that the film’s teaser will be released on Wednesday, August 12, giving audiences their first extended glimpse into the story. The teaser launch follows the unveiling of fresh posters that showcase the two actors against a shadowy backdrop, with the title prominently displayed in red to underscore the film’s ominous tone.
While Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar have a history of collaborating on comedy films, Haiwaan marks a departure into a high‑stakes thriller. The plot details remain largely under wraps, but the teaser is expected to reveal the characters, their world and the central conflict. Saif Ali Khan plays a key role, joining Akshay Kumar in a narrative that the production team has kept tight‑lipped about.
The ensemble also features Boman Irani, Saiyami Kher and Shriya Pilgaonkar in pivotal roles, adding further intrigue to the project. Production is handled by KVN Productions and Thespian Films, with backing from Venkat K. Narayana and Shailaja Desai Fenn. Priyadarshan is credited as the film’s director.
With the teaser slated for August 12, the promotional campaign is expected to kick off ahead of the film’s theatrical release. Haiwaan is scheduled to hit worldwide cinemas on September 11, 2026, promising an edge‑of‑the‑seat experience for fans of both stars and the director.
