Is Akshay Kumar turning the ultimate king of biopics in Bollywood?

Superstar Akshay Kumar is on a roll. The actor has his hands full with some very interesting projects lined up in his kitty. Recently, the news came in that Akshay is all set to play the role of late music baron Gulshan Kumar which has been titled ‘Mogul’. Along with the news, the first poster of this film was also released which made waves among his fans and moviegoers.

But, this latest project signed by Akshay caught our attention for another reason. And that is his current love for doing biopics. Yes! ‘Mogul’, to be directed by Subhash Kapoor is not the first biopic which will see actor Akshay Kumar stepping into someone’s shoes.

If we take a look at his projects, the actor has already been signed in for director R Balki’s ‘PadMan’ and Reema Kagti’s ‘Gold’. (Also Read: Akshay Kumar starts shooting for wifey Twinkle Khanna’s first production venture ‘PadMan’)

While ‘PadMan’ is based on the true story of Arunachalam Muruganantham who invented machines to make cheap sanitary napkins, ‘Gold’ is a sports period film that is set in the backdrop of year 1948 London Olympics, narrating the story of independent India’s first gold medal win at the Olympics.

Even, Akshay’s forthcoming film in collaboration with superstar Salman Khan and Karan Johar is said to be based on Battle of Saragarhi.

Before these films hit the silver screens, Akshay has acted in movies like ‘Special 26’, ‘Rustom’ and ‘Airlift’ which were based on the real life incidents.

Well, we can surely say one thing that Bollywood’s Khiladi is definitely turning out to be an undisputed king now when it is about telling real life stories on big screen.

Don’t you agree with us?
