As per a report in Pinkvilla, a source revealed that the Bell Bottom actor is a thorough professional and believes in saying that the ‘show must go on’. Reportedly, the actor will be back in the UK on September 10 to complete the filming since the production unit undergoes massive expenditure when film shoots are halted. 

The source in the report said, “Akshay is a thorough professional and believes in the saying that show must go on. He also understands the gravity of the financial scenario when the film shoots are put on hold, especially in tough times like the on-going pandemic – since 100s of people are involved in the production team and crew. He was with his mother in her last few days, performed all the rituals over the last couple of days and is now all ready to resume work.”
