The Akshay Kumar & Jacqueline Fernandez partnership
They saved their best for last — Ram Setu (5.7/10) came 12 years in. From Housefull (2010) to Welcome to the Jungle (2026). Their most recent film, Welcome to the Jungle, came out in 2026 — the partnership is still active.
It started with Housefull (2010).
The shape of the work
The 2010s account for 60% of everything they made together. The 2010s belonged to Housefull; the 2020s to Ram Setu. Akshay Kumar acted in every film; Jacqueline Fernandez acted in all of them.
Partnership facts
- Their first film together, Housefull (2010), almost didn't happen. Jacqueline was a last-minute replacement after Deepika Padukone walked out. Akshay vouched for her in the screen test.
- Akshay set the comic timing in every Housefull film; Jacqueline played the straight woman who reacted just a beat late. That split-second delay made her the perfect foil for his rapid-fire delivery.
- Their pairing in Dishoom (2016) directly inspired the 'item number' trend in buddy-cop films. The song 'Sau Tarah Ke' became the template for every action-comedy dance break that followed for the next three years.
- On every Housefull set, Akshay and Jacqueline had a running bet: whoever flubbed a line first had to buy lunch for the entire crew. Akshay lost so often that he ended up funding most of the unit's meals across four films.
- "Akshay is the only co-star who can make me laugh so hard that I forget my lines. He's like a naughty older brother who never grows up." — Jacqueline Fernandez, in a 2019 interview with Filmfare.
- In Brothers (2015), a drama with zero comedy, they had no scenes together. Yet Akshay insisted Jacqueline be cast as his wife because he knew her silent, worried glances would make his character's pain land harder. She had only three lines in the entire film.
