Akshay Kumar announces his next film titled Bell Bottom

From the past few days, there have been strong reports about Akshay Kumar collaborating with the producers of his movie Airlift, Emmay Entertainment, once again. And well, the reports have turned out to be true.

The actor recently took to Twitter to announce Bell Bottom. Along with the first look of the film, Akshay tweeted, “Get ready to go back to the 80’s and hop onto a roller-coaster spy ride, #BELLBOTTOM! Releasing on 22nd January, 2021. @ranjit_tiwari @vashubhagnani @jackkybhagnani @honeybhagnani @monishaadvani @madhubhojwani @nikkhiladvani @EmmayEntertain @poojafilms.”


Along with Emmay Entertainment, the movie will also be produced by Pooja Films. Set in the 80s, it was said that the movie is a remake of a Kannada film with the same name. However, Akshay took to Twitter to clarify that it is not a remake.

When a fan asked him if it’s a remake of the Kannada film, the actor replied, “#BellBottom is not a remake of any film, it is an original screenplay inspired by true events.”

This is not the first time Akshay will be seen in a period drama; earlier also he has been a part period films like Airlift, Rustom, Once Upon Ay Time In Mumbaai Dobara, and more. Well, now we are keen to know which true incidents Bell Bottom is inspired from.

Directed by Ranjit Tiwari, Bell Bottom is slated to hit the screens on 22nd January 2021. It will be a Republic Day weekend release, so we are sure the movie will have a patriotic angle in it. While we know that Akshay plays the lead role in the film, we wait to see who will be seen opposite the actor in the film.

10 iconic tracks that made Ozzy Osbourne the true Prince of Darkness

Ozzy Osbourne didn’t come into music to chase fame or play safe. He arrived like a storm, scraping his voice against the sky, dragging darkness and vulnerability into sound, and setting fire to what rock thought it was. He was messy, wild, broken, brilliant, and in that chaos, he changed everything.

With Ozzy, it wasn’t just the bat bite or the reality show or the outrageous headlines. It was the sound, the howl in your chest when War Pigs starts. The goosebumps from the first haunted notes of Mr. Crowley. The punch of recognition when Crazy Train hits the chorus. His songs crawled into your head, grabbed your guts, and shook you. It was the sound of being lost, pissed off, scared, high, in love, and staring into the damn void, sometimes all at once. He gave misfits an anthem, outcasts a home, and music a pulse that refused to die.

Comment: Why Old Trafford Test is missed chance to talk trade

PRIME MINISTER Keir Starmer has been more sure-footed on the world stage than at home in his first year in office, but is sensitive to the wrong-headed charge that he spends too much time abroad.

So, this will be a week when world leaders come to him, with fleeting visits from both Indian prime minister Narendra Modi and US president Donald Trump, touring his golf courses in Scotland before his formal state visit in September. The main purpose of Modi’s two-day stopover is to sign the India-UK trade deal, agreed in May, but overshadowed then by the escalation of conflict between India and Pakistan.
