Akshay Kumar’s kind gesture to reschedule his movie ‘Pad Man’ for ‘Padmaavat’ has won the hearts of not just the filmmakers but the leading cast as well.
The problem occurred when ‘Padmaavat’ announced its release on January 25 in clash with ‘Pad Man’, however Akshay Kumar amicably resolved the enigma by offering to postpone his movie till January 9.
The Pad Man hero announced this in a press conference on request of iconic Bollywood director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
“A big day can accomodate two movies, but I would personally like to see his (Bhansali’s) film being screened solo on big screen, because there’s a big thing on stake and they have gone through a lot. So, I wish him a luck,” he said.
