Friendship
Khan had said Kumar plays 'dangerous, negative role'
Earlier, Khan had described Kumar playing "a dangerous, negative role."
He also spoke about his long-standing friendship with Kumar. He said, "I love Akshay. He's like an elder brother to me."
"We go all the way back. There's a special respect for someone who has served as long as he has."
The duo has worked together on Yeh Dillagi (1994), Main Khiladi Tu Anari (1994), and Tu Chor Main Sipahi (1996).
Expectations
Mohanlal plays an important role
Apart from Khan and Kumar, Haiwaan stars Shriya Pilgaonkar and Saiyami Kher.
Priyadarshan is directing the thriller, reuniting with Kumar after their successful stint in Bhooth Bangla.
Interestingly, Haiwaan is said to be the Hindi remake of Priyadarshan's 2016 Malayalam hit Oppam, which starred Mohanlal, and the Mollywood superhero has a small role in the upcoming movie as well.
The film will release on September 11.
