That is one helluva makeover! It looks like Akshay Kumar, the Mr Bharat of recent times, has gone the whole hog to turn bad. A teaser of his character was revealed during the shoot of Rajinikanth’s next film – 2.o by Tamil director Shankar.
Dressed in a grey outfit, Akshay carries off a sinister air with his long ‘eye lashes’ and blood-shot eyes. He even sports a bald patch, white hair and a false set of teeth. Akshay reportedly plays evil mind Dr Richard, a scientist who can turn into a crow at will.
The photo still was tweeted by an Akshay Kumar fan club from an exclusive photo shoot for Delhi Times.
