Akshay
Kumar and Raveena Tandon have both created a huge fan base for themselves over the past three decades. What is surprising is how their on-screen pairing was loved equally or even more than anyone could have imagined. From their first movie together in 1994, titled Mohra, to their latest collaboration, Welcome To The Jungle, the stars have consistently maintained the buzz. The upcoming film is quite special for the actors’ fans and audience because they reunite after 22 years. The last film they did together was in 2004, titled Police Force: An Inside Story.
Akshay Kumar and Raveena Tandon’s Last Movie Before WTTJ
Akshay and Raveena were last seen on screens together in the 2004 release,
Police Force: An Inside Story. The film was directed by Dilip Shukla and is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.
The film starred
Akshay Kumar as a dedicated policeman named Vijay Singh under the guidance of Pandey (Amrish Puri). Raveena Tandon as Roma is Vijay’s girlfriend who lends him moral support throughout the film. After Pandey, with his strict mannerisms, he guides the group of recruits, and they face unexpected scenarios of the corrupt and harsh realities. Vijay then struggles to decide between the moral ethics, which must be sacrificed to survive in the system and to become a rebellious one to end the tyranny. By following the second path, he chooses to bring down a criminal-political syndicate.
Akshay Kumar and Raveen Tandon’s Bond
Akshay and Raveena are one of the most sizzling on-screen pairings of Bollywood. After their first film together in 1995, they started dating and later got engaged. But in the late 90s, they parted ways. Now, after years of keeping behind the past, Raveena, in many interviews, has revealed how she has been friends with Akshay since then. They meet and greet each other, and it feels like they have forgotten what happened years ago. Now, the pair will bring the nostalgic days back for all audiences with Welcome To The Jungle.
Reunion in Welcome to the Jungle
Ahmed Khan, the director of
Welcome to the Jungle, in a recent interview with Mid-Day, revealed the real reason for bringing the duo back. He said, “People will want to see Raveena and Akshay together, so why not do a fan service?”
Raveena also had no reservations working with him as she felt 'they will have a blast on sets'. Ahmed mentioned how they (Akshay and Raveena) also reminisced about their past films together on
Welcome to the Jungle’s sets. The film is scheduled for its theatrical release on June 26, a long overdue of the much-anticipated sequel to Welcome franchise.
