Late actor Asrani will be seen on the big screen one last time in the upcoming film Haiwaan.
Ahead of the films release, Akshay Kumar shared a clip featuring the veteran actor and remembered his co-star with an emotional note. Akshay took to Instagram on Friday to share a scene from Haiwaan, which features Asrani in a funny exchange with actor Sharib Hashmi. In the scene, Sharib asks Asranis character his name. When he replies, Hussain, Sharib asks, Aage peeche kuch hai nahi kya? (Dont you have anything before or after your name?) Asranis character then replies with a witty line, Peeche hawaldaar hai aur aage aap hain (Theres a police constable behind me, and youre in front of me). Sharing the clip, Akshay remembered the experience of working with Asrani and said he felt fortunate to have witnessed the veteran actors final shot. My good fortune that I got to work with this legend and see him give his last ever shot in Haiwaan. Miss you, Asrani jithere can be no one like you, Akshay wrote. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc2ogABuQHJ/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsi=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Asrani and Akshay have shared the screen in several films over the years, including Hera Pheri (2000), Awara Paagal Deewana (2002), Garam Masala (2005), Deewane Huye Paagal (2005), Bhagam Bhag (2006), Phir Hera Pheri (2006), Bhool Bhulaiyaa (2007), Welcome (2007), De Dana Dan (2009), Khatta Meetha (2010) and Bhooth Bangla, among others. Asrani, who is best known for his comic roles and memorable performances, died at the age of 84 following a prolonged illness. Haiwaan will now feature his final screen appearance posthumously. Directed by Priyadarshan, Haiwaan also marks the reunion of Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan on screen after more than a decade. The two actors were last seen together in Tashan (2008). Haiwaan is scheduled to release in theatres on September 11. (ANI)
