Akshay Kumar as the villain. Saif Ali Khan as the hero. And Priyadarshan back in the director’s chair. On paper, this dream team—whose hits include Main Khiladi Tu Anari and Yeh Dillagi—promises fireworks. Yet their upcoming project carries a twist that even loyal fans find unsettling.
They’re remaking Oppam, the critically acclaimed Malayalam thriller. While the original won praise for its tight suspense and stellar performances, Bollywood remakes have struggled to match their source material—especially in today’s risk-averse box-office climate. That pressure falls squarely on Akshay Kumar, whose recent post-pandemic adaptations have underwhelmed despite strong scripts.
Saif Ali Khan, meanwhile, has taken daring turns in diverse roles, but his box-office pull still hinges on fresh, engaging narratives. Here lies the crux: can Oppam’s taut intensity survive its transition to Hindi, or will it be another high-profile remake that fizzles out?
Still shrouded in secrecy, this film is shaping up to be more than an acting showcase—it’s a high-stakes test of whether nostalgia and star power can conquer remake fatigue. As cameras roll, the industry watches with cautious optimism. Lights, camera… caution.
