Akshay Kumar shares his upcoming movie 'Kesari' first look - his dream project

New Delhi : Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar on Friday morning unveiled the first look of his upcoming movie Kesari, based on the Battle of Sargarhi. Akshay Kumar can be seen donning the look of a Sikh warrior in the image.

The battle had taken place in 1897 between British Indian Army and Afghan Orakzai tribesmen in North-West Frontier Province (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan).

While sharing Kesari's first look, Akshay Kumar wrote: “Feeling nothing but immense pride and gratitude while sharing this. Beginning my 2018 with #KESARI, my most ambitious film and a lot of passion. Need your best wishes as always @dharmamovies @iAmAzure @SinghAnurag79.”

Kesari has been directed by Anurag Singh and is likely to hit the silver screens during Holi 2019.

Well, Akshay Kumar is not the only one making movie on the battle of Sargarhi; two more Bollywood movies are in the pipeline on the same topic.

Randeep Hooda is also working on a film on the same subject and it is called Battle of Saragarhi. Ajay Devgn is also making another film on the same subject - Sons of Sardaar: The Battle of Saragarhi.
