“Not just a film, but a stepping stone in my career”, tweeted Akshay Kumar

New Delhi:

Like Akshay Kumar’s film Khiladi Friday at 28, the actor and directors of the film Abbas-Mustan became “nostalgic”. The 1992 film marked the first project of Akshay and the filmmaker duo Abbas-Mustan together and because of his performance in the film, Akshay Kumar got the title “Khiladi“, which is now synonymous with his name. Sharing a return image of the film’s sets, the duo of directors wrote on their official Twitter account:” Dear Akshay Kumar, today 28 years have passed since the release of Khiladi, our first film together. Feel nostalgic. Remember the whole team, especially Johnny Lever bhai. “Retweeting the image, Akshay called it” a springboard “in his career and wrote:” How can I forget Abbas Mustan bhai? It is not only a film for me, but a stepping stone in my career, a title that is now synonymous with me. Thank you for giving me #Khiladi. “
