Akshay Kumar, known for his busy film schedule, is making a much-anticipated return to comedy with his upcoming film Khel Khel Mein. The movie, directed by Mudassar Aziz, also stars Ammy Virk, Taapsee Pannu, Vaani Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal. Set to hit theaters on August 15, the film has already generated buzz with its first song, “Hauli Hauli.”
The song, performed by Guru Randhawa, Yo Yo Honey Singh, and Neha Kakkar, stands out for its soft, groovy Punjabi beats. The music video features Akshay Kumar and Vaani Kapoor dancing together, while Ammy Virk and Taapsee Pannu add an adorable touch. Fardeen Khan makes a striking entrance, and Akshay and Fardeen pay homage to their 2007 comedy Heyy Babyy by recreating a memorable dance step from the film.
A special highlight of the video is Chitrangada Singh’s appearance. The actress, who previously starred with Akshay Kumar in Desi Boyz (2011), joins him in a scene set on an airplane. It’s unclear whether this is a cameo or a larger role, but fans are thrilled to see the reunion.
The nostalgic moments in the video have sparked excitement among fans. One viewer commented, “Akshay sir and Chitrangada Desi Boyzz ki yaad dila di,” while another shared, “Nostalgiaaaa Akshay + Fardeen + Chitrangada Heyy Baby and Desi Boyzz.” The recreation of the Heyy Babyy hook step and Akshay’s signature move of lifting his onscreen wife Vaani has also received praise, with fans noting, “Everything is temporary but Akshay sir lifting actress is permanent.”
