Akshay Kumar first appeared in a horror-comedy in Priyadarshan's Bhool Bhulaiyaa 14 years back. The actor stole the show and his work is remembered to date. Priyadarshan went ahead with the franchise and introduced Kartik Aaryan as Rooh baba in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and the upcoming Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.
Meanwhile, over a decade after Shraddha Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao's Stree released and paved the way for Maddock Supernatural Universe, did Akshay Kumar join the franchise. He was seen in a cameo appearance in Stree 2, which is just the introduction of what role he will play in the universe. It is to be noted that Shraddha plays Stree's daughter, while Varun Dhawan is seen as Bhediya and we also got Munjya, which will intertwine with some other film at some point. Stree 2 is now the second highest grossing Bollywood film, and the next from this franchise is likely to be Bhediya 2, featuring Varun and Kriti Sanon in the lead roles.
