The title is said to complement the tone of the story as well as the personality of Akshay Kumar\u2019s character. It also carries nostalgic value, as \u201cWicked Sunny\u201d was the name of the memorable theme associated with Akshay\u2019s character in <em>Mujhse Shaadi Karogi<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>The film is expected to present Akshay Kumar in a quirky comic avatar that is said to be different from the roles he has portrayed in his recent comedy films. Reports suggest that the actor\u2019s character has been designed to bring a fresh flavour to the comedy genre while staying true to Priyadarshan\u2019s signature style of storytelling.<\/p>\n<p>The project is backed by Tips Films and is expected to be a comedy thriller. The screenplay has reportedly been written by Priyadarshan along with Rohan Shankar, who previously collaborated with the filmmaker on <em>Bhooth Bangla<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Reports further suggest that the film is likely to go on the floors in December this year. While the makers have not officially revealed additional details about the cast or storyline, the announcement of the title has already generated excitement among fans.<\/p>\n<p><em>Wicked Sunny<\/em> will mark the ninth collaboration between Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan.
