Few people are aware that Akshay's mother died just a day before his 54th birthday. Twinkle Khanna and her daughter Nitara, who accompanied Akshay to London, are flying back to Mumbai today.
Meanwhile, on the job front, Akshay has a diverse slate of projects in the works, including ‘Bachchan Pandey,' ‘Raksha Bandhan,' ‘Ram Setu,' ‘Atrangi Re,' and more. He's also looking forward to the release of Rohit Shetty's next film "Sooryavanshi," which co-stars Katrina Kaif. The film was intended to be released in March of last year. However, because to the epidemic and the subsequent lockdown, the film was postponed indefinitely.
