They tagged cast members Akshay Kumar, Ayesha Jhulka, Johnny Lever, Deepak Tijori and Sabeeha, as well as composer duo Jatin-Lalit who had scored superhit music for the successful film, besides cinematographer Thomas Xavier and producers Venus.

“Khiladi”, released on this day in 1992, was Akshay’s third release and his first major hit. The film launched his stardom as an action hero and earned him the sobriquet of Bollywood’s Mr Khiladi, or Khiladi Kumar, and also triggered off a series of unrelated “Khiladi” films.

For Abbas-Mustan, “Khiladi” was their second release. They shot to the big league after this film, calling the shots on hits like “Baazigar”, “Soldier”, “Humraaz”, “Chori Chori Chupke Chupke”, “Aitraaz”, “Race” and “Race 2”.

Akshay Kumar and Abbas-Mustan would work in “Ajnabee” (2001) and “Aitraaz” (2004) after “Khiladi”.
