Mrunal Thakur To Play Akshay Kumar's Romantic Interest In The Thriller Bell Bottom?

Mrunal Thakur has had a great 2019. Last year Mrunal had two big releases, Super 30 opposite Hrithik Roshan and Batla House opposite John Abraham. She has also been part of the Netflix anthology Ghost Stories. And this year she will be seen along Shahid Kapoor in Jersey and opposite Farhan Akhtar in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Toofan. And if the latest buzz is to be believed, the actress will also be starring in Ranjit Tiwari’s Bell Bottom, where she will be starring opposite Akshay Kumar.

According to a Bollywood Hungama report, Mrunal Thakur will play Akshay Kumar’s love interest. The report quotes a source as saying, “Nikkhil was keen to sign Mrunal as he’s worked with her in Batla House (where she plays John’s wife and a news anchor) and feels that she is very talented. Bell Bottom is said to be a spy thriller revolving around a cop cum detective’s stories. He is a cop in the day but likes to be a sleuth when off duty."

The report further quotes him as saying, "If everything goes well and Mrunal signs Bell Bottom, she will play Akshay’s romantic interest. Her role is interesting and has shades to it – someone whom Akshay’s character meets in the course of his life as a cop and falls in love with her. It’s a retro movie set in the 1980s, and the thriller revolving around one of India’s forgotten heroes. It will be a mix of all Akshay, Vashu and Nikkhil’s style of filmmaking – action, emotion and entertainment and is said to be inspired from a real-life incident.”

Bell Bottom is produced by Nikkhil Advani, Vashu Bhagnani, Jackky Bhagnani, and Akshay Kumar. Akshay is said to have been paid a whopping amount for the role.

After Airlift that released in 2016, Akshay will come together with Nikkhil Advani after 3 years and we at Desimartini.com hope this association becomes a successful one
