Akshay Kumar and Mouni Roy shoot for ‘Gold’

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar began shooting for one of his keenly-awaited upcoming films ‘GOLD’  in Bradford, earlier this month. The actor will be playing a Bengali character in the film.

He was spotted shooting with his leading lady, Mouni Roy. Both will be seen in a retro look, as the makers try to capture the essence of the way life was in the 1940s.

‘Gold’ marks the Bollywood debut of popular television actress Mouni Roy.

The film also marks the return of ‘Talaash’ director Reema Kagti.

‘Gold’ is a sports drama on India’s first Olympic Gold medal win after Independence. The movie also features Amit Sadh and Kunal Kapoor.

It’s scheduled to release in theatres during the Independence Day weekend next year.

      • @SRK jabra fan this movie will be a blockbuster. And Akahay’s look is one of the best I have ever seen. JHMS will be a flop just like other SRK movies . So u are poor not we . Hahaha shame on u.

      • @Rustom

        SRK has 3 times less flop than canadian
        You have been insulting SRK a lot
        Its been 3 years that SRK has no clean hit.
        1. Longest period without a clean hit is Akshay Kumar(1996-2003, after KKK before Andaaz)
        2. SRK in non holiday:
        -RNBDJ-Blockbuster
        -Karan Arjun-Blockbuster
        -Pardesh-2cr+footfalls
        -Devdas-2cr+footfall

        Working day:
        Karan Arjun-Record opener
        Koyla-Record opener
        K3G-Record opener
        Main Hoo Na-Record opener

        Akshay in holidays:
        Sapoot-Deewali-FLOP
        BLUE, jaaneman-FLOP
        Aitraaz-Avg-TMK=Semi hit
        ATHWS(X mas)-Flop
        Action replay-Flop

        Dont make accuses of clash. DDLJ/KKHH were also in clash but still ATBB.

        SRK’s top hits and approx footfalls
        DDLJ-Originally was 6cr, now 4.78cr
        KKHH-3.5cr
        K3G-3.1cr
        KA-Approx 3cr
        DTPH-Nearly 3 cr

        Akki:
        Mohra-2.1cr
        RR-2cr
        Finish!!!!!

        Non holiday 100cr
        SRK-Raees(Dont tell Raees is holiday, by that logic even Airlift is holiday)

        So NON HOLIDAY ka bahana banana chod

        And “CLEAN HIT”

        SRK’s semi hits earn more than Akki’s clean hits.
        Plus longest period without clean hit is Akki(After KKK to Andaz, 7 years, Yes 7 YEARS)

        SRK will have 11 blockbusters after BOI updates Baazigar. Akki has 2 in entire career.

        Ab na holiday ka bahana chalega na clean hits ka

        Akki has no ATBBs and HGOTYs also.

        And if postponing movie is being Bhagoda, tere canadian ne bhi bhagaya tha apna OUATIMD CE se

      • SRK’S JABRA FAN#@ you should worry about the biggest disaster of the year JHMS and I damn sure about this just wait a little more and you will see by your own eyes

    • Reema Kagti (orginally Kakoty) makes critically acclaim movie like Honeymoon travels Pvt. Ltd. or Talash. But I personally think that she dont make a movie with commercial elements. Lets hope Akshay Kumars makes the movie blockbuster. But one thing is sure that Akshay get a very good chance to show his talent in this movie. Best of Luck to GOLD Team.

      • Just like raees director rahul dholakia ….he was a critically acclaimed before raees

  • Akshay has been in a very good position. …his choice of films has been very good… nxt year. . 2.0 gold, padman, mogul, crack…bt I think almost all of them wre 120 to 150 crore films..I respect and like akki for giving so many good and hit films in 1 year…bt he should at least do a pan india film (2.0 is…bt actually its a tamil movie)… bt otherwise no problem…he is slowly making his place in the 3rd spot…and truely I think akshay may be successful even after 10 years from now…same with aamir…srk is the most talented actor bt his choice of films wre going down…salman may rule bollywood upto nxt 6 to 7 years bt he may not take it afterwards. .any way salman is a megastar…and best of luck for akshay for gold and 2.0

  • Congrats akki his choice of films has been a boon for him…all his upcoming films look interesting. . 2.0 padman crack gold mogul

  • @Khiladi at 2:56 PM
    Another “blockbuster”? Puray carrer mai do blockbusters hai-one multistarrer, one solo, the highest one(Mohra) also has only 2.15cr footfalls :). So what “another” are you talking about? By the way @indicine, is it true that Akshay’s film Battle Of Saranghai is shelved?

  • Good luck Akshay sir. Looks interesting. I liked Talaash, but it wasn’t very commercial. Hope the director delivers this time.

  • This movie looks exciting but the problem is people have seen Azhar, MSD, Dangal and Sultan in the last few years . For the first Akshay will be working with Excel Entertainment . Mouni Roy will be making her debut with this film . This film is based on the 1st Olympic Gold Medal won by the Indian Hockey Team in the Post Independence Period . I hope this film makes a huge impact like Lagaan, Iqbaal, BMB, Dangal, CDI and JJWS .
    @ Indicine Are you sure he is playing a Bengali character ? I have heard he is playing Balbir Singh former Hockey player . Please confirm as soon as possible . !!!!!!!!

  • Another blockbuster????? Too much fun when did he last have a blockbuster??? Like i said akki fans r deluded big time

  • akshay choice is awesome ….he is choosing nice scripts..but his is not blockbustor……he is only running behind money….charging 1cr per day …..that is the reason he is doing 3 4 movie per year…paisa kamana achi baat h but by this his movies not remained awaited…jabki uski movies ki script 200 plus ki hoti h ……100 cr m hi haanfne lgta h …….
