Return of Fardeen Khan on the big screen

Interestingly, with Khel Khel Mein, Fardeen returns to the big screen after nearly 15 years. In 2010, Aziz made his directorial debut with his last movie, Dulha Mil Gaya, starring Sushmita Sen and Ishita Sharma in the lead roles, and Shah Rukh Khan made a cameo appearance.

In the meantime, Sarfira, Akshay's next film, is getting ready to hit theatres on July 12 under the direction of Sudha Kongara. In addition to Suriya's cameo, the film stars Akshay and Paresh Rawal. This year, throughout the Christmas holiday in 2024, Akshay will star in three films: Sarfira, Khel Khel Mein, and Welcome to the Jungle. Currently, the shoot is underway for the adventure comedy set in a tropical jungle.

Akshay's first release in 2024 is Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, which hit the big screen earlier this month and became a box office failure.
