Akshay Kumar Teams Up With Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari Director

Just how many  films  is Akshay Kumar going to do every year? He has  just completed and released Laxmii . Sooryavanshi is ready for release. Now  comes the announcement on Diwali day  of Ram Setu, a  dramedy based  on  the  theory of unity and brotherhood, to be directed  by Abhishek Sharma.

Interestingly both Akshay Kumar and Abhishek Sharma   had releases this Diwali. While Akshay’s Laxmii  opened to  mixed responses,  Sharma’s Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari  is the  first Hindi film to open in theatres  after  the  Covid19 lockdown.

Sharma has  directed a number of  middling comedies  including  Tere Bin Laden and  Shaukeens.  He  hit bigtime with  the John Abraham political  bio-pic Parmanu . While not much is known about  Sharma’s collaboration with Akshay Kumar, sources say  Ram Setu  will speak of  the urgent need  for  unity and brotherhood in the fragmented and fractured global scenario.

Ram Setu boasts  of  Dr Chandraprakash Diwedi  as a creative contributor. Diwedi is currently directing  Akshay in his  next project  the historical  Prithviraj Chauhan.
