MUMBAI: Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming movie Sky Force, has shared that he is always fascinated by movies that are based on true stories.
The actor took to Instagram today and shared a picture of himself in his character from Sky Force, which is also based on a true story. The picture shows the character of a decorated air force officer.
He wrote in the caption: “I’ve been a part of over 150 films, but there’s something uniquely powerful about the words ‘based on a true story’. And to top it off, stepping into the uniform of an Air Force officer has been nothing short of incredible.”
He added: “Sky Force is an untold story of honour, courage and patriotism that deserves to be shared. Watch it in cinemas starting tomorrow.”
Earlier, Kumar came out in support of his contemporary, Salman Khan, after reports circulated that he (Kumar) left the Bigg Boss 18 sets without shooting after Khan allegedly did not arrive for the shoot on time. He said he had prior commitments that he needed to attend to, which was why he had to leave the set.
Kumar also shared that he spoke to Khan before he left, ensuring that everything was okay between them.
He told the media in Delhi: “I was running late for something. I spoke to Salman and he was stuck with something personal. He told me he would be late by around 40 minutes. But I had to leave because I had a prior commitment. Mujhe jana pada. However, we spoke about it.”
Sky Force is set to release on January 24. - IANS
