A source has revealed to the publication that the 53-year-old star is convincing Jackky Bhagnani to go for the latter option as the actor doesn’t want another film of his arriving so quickly on the heels of a previous one.
Akshay Kumar’s Sooryavanshi has been building buzz for over a year since its trailer dropped and the film is a part of the immensely successful universe, boasting blockbusters like Singham and Simmba. As per the report, the superstar is of the opinion that the audience wouldn’t be so keen on buying tickets for another of his releases during the time of summer vacations. At this time generally, families plan their outings well in advance.
The actor is of the belief that Sooryavanshi will make a strong impression therefore Bell Bottom’s release in May would be overkill for him as an actor, and hence, may see postponing the latter as the only option.
