EXCLUSIVE: You won’t believe how much Akshay Kumar charged for the Gulshan Kumar biopic!

Akshay Kumar is an actor with the most number of films announced till date. The actor, who shoots and releases almost four films a year, is gearing up for another hectic two years. And one of the biggest films that he has been signed on for, is Bhushan Kumar’s ‘Mogul‘ which will capture the life tale of his dad Gulshan Kumar on celluloid.

Son Bhushan has greenlit a film on his late dad’s life and he will be producing the film too. (Also read: Akshay Kumar on his National award win and the backlash he received for the same!)
