Akshay Kumar’s Gold to go on floors in Bradford

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who is on a roll these days with his choice of films, will begin shooting for one of his upcoming films ‘Gold’ – which releases in theatres during the Independence Day weekend next year.

The film is based on the life of Olympian Balbir Singh, the first person to win gold medal for independent India in 1948.

There are reports that Akshay and his wife Twinkle are currently in Bradford (England).

Reema Kagti, who directed Aamir Khan in ‘Talaash’, will be directing ‘Gold’. Television actress Mouni Roy will play the female lead.

‘Gold’ is announced for theatres release on August 15 next year. It’ll be Akshay’s fourth consecutive ‘Independence Day’ release after Brothers (2015), Rustom (2016) and Toilet Ek Prem Katha (2017).

  • Was waiting for this news since long time. Really excited for 2018. Potentially it is Akshay’s biggest year, both in terms of collections as well as content. If Crack is confirmed, then we can get to see 5 releases from Akshay in 2018- 2.0, Salman-Karan film, Gold, Mogul and Crack. Excited!!!

  • @Sayar Akkian

    -20cr opening with clash

    Now coming to your Akki
    The only superstar who has/had:

    #Compeiting with Varun/Ranbir in opening
    #Lost 4 clashes with SRK

    @Sayar Akkian, Fake ID holder, thats your star

  • Reema’s gavd a semit with blockbstr aamir khan

    tis time its flop kumar….so disaster guaranteed

  • With due respect, Akshay cannot compare with khans until he start to delivers hit movies with big budget. Even Varun can deliver hit movies with control budget. I still doubt Can Akshay make a movie hit with 100cr+ budget.

  • Superb. My expectations from Akshay sir upcoming films:
    TEPK- 140 cr
    Padman- 105 cr
    2.0- 250 cr(hindi)
    Crack- 150 cr
    Gold- 160 cr
    Salman-Karan film- 170 cr
    Mogul- 140 cr

  • @anand idiot who told u he’s doing modi biopic?? It has been confirmed many times it’s one and only Paresh Rawal doing it..

  • LMAO who the fcuk is this bloody fool saying BOS and JLLB2 are patriotic movies.. Like seriously..? ?

  • @sayar
    Yes Akshay gave flops on EDX, but atleast he didn’t run away from clashes like your King Khan. He dared to clash with Golmaal 3 though the writing was on the wall for Action Replayy.
    Yeh Dillagi was a disaster? On which planet? Tashan was a below average and that too only coz it didn’t release in multiplexes in Week 1. Despite releasing only in single screens it had a bigger opening than a multiplex film Jodha Akbar and the credit goes only to Akshay.

    And SRK is the only star who bullied everyone during his good phase and now he is running away from clashes. Raees is the best example of his hypocrisy, ran away from Sultan coz Salman was too big but clashed with Kaabil coz he had an upper hand over Hrithik. And still chanting ‘I am great enough to be humble’.

  • @sayar
    ‘Akshay lost 4 clashes to SRK’
    Mark your words boy, you have admitted once again that CE vs OUATIMD was an official clash. Coz Khiladiyon ka Khiladi(14 June) also crushed SRK’s Chaahat(6 June) and let’s talk after JHMS and TEPK.

    Also it was Akshay who gave the first blockbuster on Xmas that too despite a major clash. Even during his worst phase he enjoyed a solo big release on the Xmas(TMK), let’s see if SRK gets a solo release on Xmas 2018…

  • Hum hein seedhe saadhe Akshay Akshay

    Hum hein Khans/Hrithik ke samne bache bache

    Kyun ke hum ne abhi 150 cr cross hein karne karne ?

  • Akki haters are mostly srk fans.they shud better worry about their kingu panda who don’t have a single hit since hny n they are commenting on akki who gave 4 100 CR’s grossers which are also clean superhits in a single year.

  • @DEADFOOL 2.0, What’s wrong did I say? It was my opinion.
    Why do you envy me always? Has GF ever tried to elope with me? :D

  • Akki – One man industry – look at his lineup.

    4 back to back hits – Airlift, HF3, Rustom, Jolly LLB 2

    4 more – TEPK, Padman, 2.0 and now Gold

    Akki is not stopping just wait and watch him go

  • Indicine i think you are showing partiality towards three khans and other stars.

    You details small small things khans film while avoid the same for other stars.

    May be you are too busy, but tomorrow akshay kumar revealed his look in gold film but there were no article on the same.

  • @Rocky The Khiladi
    If u have a little knowledge then u would know how Akki avoided OUATIMD with CE
    And Welcome was a superhit
    And yes if Chahat vs Kkk is a clash then Swadesh vs ATHWS and is also clash, right???
    No more comments
    I have promised not to bash Akki in arena
    I won’t bash him in Indicine also from now

    Thank you

  • whatta line up!!! whatta line up !!!whatta lineup!!! look like my akki is chasing Quality khan to become a QUALITY KUMAR!!!

  • @sayar
    Akki didn’t run away, it was your SRK who requested Jeetu ji to postpone OUATIMD. Not Ekta or Akshay, he requested Jeetendra like a school kid! Don’t want to extend this into a long conversation, so this is my last comment in this article. Thank you.
