This picture is from the shoot of our Bhooth Bangla... My second-to-last film with Asrani ji. We did a total of 12 films together, and in every single one, I learned something new from him.. it was like a masterclass every single time,” wrote Akshay, paying tribute to him ahead of the film’s release.
He added, “Comedy seemed so effortless when he did it, but in reality, it's a difficult art. Asrani ji was its master and will always remain so. Bhooth Bangla releases tomorrow... For me, this isn't just a film, it's a memory... it's a tribute... it's a salute to that legend Asrani ji, you'll always be remembered,” Asrani, famous for his jail warden role in Sholay, died on October 20, 2025, at the age of 84. He will also be seen in Haiwaan with Akshay, incidentally also directed by Priyadarshan.
