Ajay Devgn and Anubhav Sinha bury the hatchet for a new action film after 18-year fallout

In massive news for Bollywood fans, superstar Ajay Devgn and filmmaker Anubhav Sinha have reportedly put their long-standing differences aside to collaborate on an upcoming project after 18 years. The duo had famously lost touch following the box office debacle of their 2007 heist film Cash, with Sinha previously revealing that they hadn't spoken since. However, the icy chapter has officially closed thanks to producer Kumar Mangat, who brought the actor-director duo together for a script reading that paved the way for an ambitious cinematic reunion.According to Mid-day, it will be the kind of larger-than-life entertainers that Anubhav used to make before, like ‘Dus’ (2005) or ‘Ra.One’ (2011). Now, the director wants to try Ajay's hand again at an ambitious action movie. After ‘Cash’, even though the duo did not speak, there was never a direct disagreement. Anubhav clarified that the disagreement was between the film’s producers and financiers. A few months ago, Kumar Mangat brought them together, and Anubhav pitched one of his three scripts to Ajay. The actor, Mangat, as well as producer Bhushan Kumar, instantly liked it, and the latter may come on board. Ajay asked Anubhav to make the scale bigger.‘Cash’ was a heist film that had a big star cast including Dia Mirza, Shamita Shetty, Esha Deol, Ajay Devgn, Suniel Shetty, Zayed Khan, and Riteish Deshmukh. The film did not do well at the box office, but the song ‘Mind-blowing Mahiya’ became a hit.On the professional front, Ajay Devgn is currently occupied with the shoot of ‘Golmaal 5’ alongside Akshay Kumar in Mumbai. The film, which is part of Rohit Shetty's popular action-comedy franchise, is expected to release in theaters worldwide in 2027.
