Bollywood might have been ruled by the Kapoors and Khans for decades, but Akshay Kumar holds his own in the world of stardom. Not is he only the most bankable and highest paid star of today but has also had the maximum hits in the last couple of years. His next film Prithviraj is thus eagerly awaited by his fans. The actor took to his social media page to share new character posters from the film of his titular role, lead actress Manushi Chhillar, Sanjay Dutt and Sonu Sood. He also shared its release date and captioned the post, “The grand Samrat #Prithviraj Chauhan’s historic journey is coming to the big screen on 10th June in Hindi, Tamil & Telugu.” 

 

Prithviraj is directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi and also stars Ashutosh Rana, Sakshi Tanwar, Manav Vij and Lalit Tiwari. The YRF film will mark the Bollywood debut of former Miss World Manushi Chhillar. Talking about the film lead actor Akshay had previously said, “It is truly an honour that I will be playing the role of one of the most fearless and courageous kings of India, Prithviraj Chauhan. As a nation, we should always celebrate our heroes and immortalize what they did to propagate the values that Indians lived by. Prithviraj is our attempt to bring to light his valour and daredevilry. Prithviraj was the only person standing in front of a merciless nemesis and the bravery he showed, made him a true Indian hero, an inspiration for generations and a legend. So this announcement coming on my birthday has indeed made it more special for me.” Apart from this film, Akshay will also be seen in Ram Setu, Raksha Bandhan and Gorkha.
