Akshay Kumar
will be seen sharing screen space with
Prithviraj Sukumaran
in his next ‘
Bade Miyan Chote Miyan
‘. Prithviraj has not been a part of a Hindi film, since a while. His last Hindi movie as an actor was ‘Aiyya’ starring Rani Mukerji. The actors launched the trailer of BMCM today in Mumbai and when Akshay introduced Prithviraj, he said, “He’s such a good actor.
He has more dialogues than us in the movie! But it has been so much fun working with him. I’ve learnt so much about acting from him.”
Prithviraj got all shy while getting compliments from Akshay and said that, “Not this compliment from you!” Akshay responded saying, “Just because I’ve been in more films than you doesn’t mean that I’m better! You’re a much better actor!”
Further, at the event, Akshay spoke about Prithviraj’s upcoming film, ‘
The Goat Life
‘ which is set to release on March 28. Akshay said, “He showed me the trailer and usually I do not go for movie screenings but I’ve asked him to call me for the screening. I will go for it because it looks so interesting. All of you must watch it.”
Akshay further asked Prithviraj, “I think you’re working on the movie for 2-3 years now,” to which Prithviraj responded, “16 years!” Akshay was shocked to hear that and he said, “Kya kar rahe the 16 saal? Sixteen years that man has worked on this film! Unbelievable. Yahan 16 maheena humse ek picture pe kaam nahi kiya jaata. Hatts off to him.”
‘The Goat Life’ is directed by Blessy.
