On Sept 8, “Haiwaan” bagged a green signal from the CBFC. The film has a runtime of 164.7 minutes, which is approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes, ensuring it is ready for theatrical release. Notably, this film marks the reunion of the lead actors on the big screen after an 18-year hiatus. The duo last appeared in 2008’s “Tashan” alongside Kareena Kapoor Khan.

As seen in the trailer, Saif essays the role of a visually impaired man caught in a dangerous conspiracy, while Akshay plays a ruthless antagonist. Ever since the intriguing teaser of Haiwaan dropped, audiences have been keenly waiting to see more of the dark and unpredictable world of the film. 

Bankrolled by Venkat K. Narayana and Shailaja Desai Fenn under KVN Productions and Thespian Films, the film is expected to be dark, chilling, and packed with tension.
