Akshay Kumar
Akshay Kumar will soon start shooting for the third instalment of the Hera Pheri franchise. The actor is looking forward to reprise his character of Raju in the comic caper, which also stars Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty. The first part released in 2000 and part two in 2006.
He may have done a spate of patriotic and issue-based films recently but don't slot Akshay Kumar into a category just yet. The 50-year-old actor says he is changing his gear by doing comedy and potboilers next. "I hate getting tagged. I don't like people telling me that 'He does good action or he keeps doing patriotic stuff'. I feel suffocated when they try to put me in a corner, I feel like running away from it. I hate it. That's why I'm doing films like 'Housefull 4', 'Hera Pheri 3', 'Kesari', 'Good News' and a horror-comedy," he said in a group interview.
