The busiest actor in Bollywood has always been Akshay Kumar, who has remained the same despite both his successes and disappointments. It was recently  Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Entertainment and Akshay Kumar are working on an action thriller with an Air Force backdrop. We now have another unique Akshay update. Our sources claim that Akshay has joined the cast of filmmaker Mudassar Aziz’s next comedy, Khel Khel Mein.

“It’s a subject that Mudassar has been discussing with Akshay for a while now and falls in the place of an out and out comic entertainer. Akshay too has liked the subject and green lit it. The movie will be produced by Bhushan Kumar and Ashwin Varde, however the timelines of shoot are not known yet,” said a source with direct knowledge of the situation, the necessary paperwork and procedures have already been completed.

As the title implies, this one is going to be a really unusual journey, with AK returning to his zone of comedy entertainment, and Akshay is quite enthusiastic about the concept. “The dates and all will be sorted soon,” the source informed. Mudassar has two subjects ready now, Khel Khel Mein with Akshay Kumar and Meri Patni Ka Remake with Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar. “We still await an update on the timelines of shoot for both the films. While the Arjun Kapoor starrer is produced by the Bhagnani’s, Akshay’s comedy is bankrolled by Bhushan & Ashwin,” the source added. OMG: Oh My God 2, which has already begun filming and is slated for an early 2023 release, is the next project Akshay is working on with Ashwin Varde.
