Akshay Kumar fulfils a street-kid’s dream

Joker is not something Akshay Kumar is proud of and so he alienated himself from the film. But for Oh My God! Akshay is leaving no stone unturned because he believes in the premise a lot. He plays Lord Krishna in the film and is also very religious in reality. Akshay feels helping a needy is also a form of worship.

Not many are aware of the fact that Akshay Kumar has been giving financial aid to cancer institutions for quite some time now. The actor feels helping the underprivileged means much more than donating money to temples or conduct religious ceremonies for God. He has been part of a lot of causes but never uttered anything about it as this is not something he wants to flaunt. Confirming the same Akshay said that God resides in every man. By helping a needy person one is just getting closer to God.

 

Now he is not a man who likes to talk about such thing and not act upon it. Recently, he made the dream of a street urchin come true. A source from the Oh My God’s unit recounted that Kumar was shooting for a song ‘Mere Nishaan’ on the streets of Mumbai. A street kid ‘Amber’ started following the crew everywhere they went. Every location they went, the kid would be around. When one of the crew members questioned her, she said that she is a fan of Akshay and wants to just see him once. Hence, she has been following the crew all day. When the actor got to know of it, he made sure he met Amber and make her feel happy.

Amitabh Bachchan's Kaalia to be remade

Three of today's top stars, Salman Khan, Ajay Devgn and Akshay Kumar, are on producer Rajat Rawail's wishlist for his remake of Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Kaalia, a film whose Hindi remake rights he picked up at `3 crore.

With Big B film remakes finding success at the box office, it remains to be seen which star will step into his rather big shoes for this film.

Rajat confirms picking up Kaalia's rights but declines from commenting on casting. "I'm indebted to Salman Bhai because whatever I'm today is after his association with my film, Ready. I have a high regard for Ajay Sir for thebrilliant actor he is and Akshay Sir is one of the biggest box-office phenomena," he conceded, stressing that his priority was to get the script right. For that, he has to first get a director on board.

He explained, "Once I have the director on board, we'll get a writing team in place to give the story a contemporary feel. Only after the script is ready, will I approach a top star and I hope that whoever I offer the film, agrees to act in it."

Ask Rawail why he picked Kaalia and he puts it down to great content and brand value. "In today's times, I see more potential for Kaalia as a brand than it had way back then. While it has hard-hitting lines — like 'Hum jahaan khade ho jaate hain, line vahin se shuru ho jaati hai - it also has fantastic music for an action film. You remember the songs of Kaalia, like Jahaan Teri Yeh Nazar Hai, Jabse Tumko Dekha, and Tum Saath Ho Jab Apne," elaborates Rajat, who is also keen to retain a couple of songs from the original film and the background score with Kaalia echoing in it.

Akshay Kumar's Joker tanks at Box Office

Director Shirish Kunder's latest movie Joker, which is one of most-awaited movies of 2012, has tanked at the Box Office in India. Its first weekend collection is not even equal to its expected first day collection. The fantasy adventure has joined the league of biggies like Abhishek Bachchan's Players and Ajay Devgn's Tezz, which have utterly failed at the Box Office early this year.

Joker was expected to open to an earth-shattering response at the Box Office on Friday. But Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha starrer film failed at the collection centres on the very first day. The movie collected approximately Rs 5 crore at the Indian Box Office, which is lower than the collection of medium budget movies like Jism 2, Jannat 2 and Teri Meri Kahaani.

The makers of Joker are hoping that its business will improve on Saturday. But negative reviews and bad word of mouth sent down its collection on the second day to Rs 4.75 crore. The movie witnessed a jump in its business on Sunday, but it was not up to the mark. The film added Rs 5.45 crores nett on the day to its first weekend collection 16.20 crore nett.

However, Joker is a very big budget movie, which has been made with Rs 45 crore. The theatrical rights have fetched a whopping price for its makers. But it is the fate of distributors, who are facing tough time. It should be seen whether the film will get back their investment in future. Stay locked to this space to read latest updates on Joker collection.
