Akshay Kumar is reportedly in talks with Siddharth Anand for a folklore-inspired horror film, marking an intriguing departure from their usual action-packed collaborations.

According to Mid-Day, Anand—best known for directing ‘War’ and ‘Pathaan’, has pitched the project to Kumar, who is said to be seriously considering the offer. Although he has yet to officially sign on, sources suggest that he is keen on the concept.

The film, described as a visually ambitious father-daughter tale, will be rich in VFX and helmed by a debutant director under Siddharth Anand’s Marflix banner.
