Akshay Kumar has been going through a rough patch for some time now. Many of his films have flopped at the box office, so he is waiting for a hit film. This year, his three films - 'Bade Mian Chhote Mian', 'Sarfira' and 'Khel Khel Mein' were released, but all three received lukewarm response. Akshay had high expectations from these films, but these expectations could not be fulfilled at the box office. After this, Akshay decided that he will not release any more films this year. However, he did a cameo in Shraddha Kapoor's Stree 2, which turned out to be a blockbuster.

Akshay's new film

Despite the flops, Akshay Kumar has a big film on his hands. Dharma Productions has announced its next film, in which Akshay Kumar will be seen in the lead role. Dharma Movies has announced the film from its Instagram account. Although the title of the film is yet to be decided, the film will be based on a real life event. The story of the film is based on the life of C. Sankaran Nair, who fought a legal battle against the British Empire.

The film's story and star cast

The film will be based on the book "The Case that Shook The Empire", written by Raghu Palat and Pushpa Palat. R Madhavan and Ananya Pandey will also be seen in the lead roles in this film along with Akshay Kumar. The film is slated for release on 14th March 2025 and is directed by Karan Singh Tyagi. Karan Singh Tyagi is known for his web series called 'Bandish Bandits'.

Story by C. Sankaran Nair

The story of the film is based on C. Sankaran Nair, who stood up against the British Empire and fought a court case against British officer Michael O'Dwyer after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. He had to face many difficulties in this battle. Sankaran Nair resigned from his post against the British government after the Jallianwala incident and his story is still inspiring today.

Akshay's special connection with the film

According to reports, apart from Dharma Productions, this biopic is also very close to Akshay Kumar. The film's post-production work is going on fast, with the makers trying to recreate that period in India and London. In 2021, Karan Johar had announced that he would make a film based on the life of Sankaran Nair, and now the work is going on in full swing.

Expectations of the fans

Akshay's fans are expecting a lot from this film. This film can prove to be a big one for Akshay who has been waiting for a hit film for a long time.
