Akshay disappointed with Shirish Kunder's 'Joker'

The buzz is that actor Akshay Kumar is not happy with the way his upcoming film Joker has shaped up. He was quite upset with director Shirish Kunder.

Apparently, when Akshay saw an edited version of Joker, he was livid. The film is reportedly about a bunch of people who escape from a mental asylum and reach a village and how an alien finds them.

'Khiladi' Kumar told Shirish that he did not want the film to release the way it had been made and wanted quite a few changes in it. Later, after a discussion with the director, it was finalised that Joker will release after Rowdy Rathore. Joker will be the fourth Bollywood film after Haunted - 3D, Ra.One and Don 2, that will be made in 2D and 3D formats. Akshay will be seen opposite to Sonakshi Sinha in the movie.

Kunder has earlier written flop films like Jaan-e-Mann and Tees Maar Khan.

Akshay has denied:

To anyone who has read or heard the rumour that I was upset with my director Shirish Kunder,sorry to disappoint you but that's exactly what it is, a RUMOUR!! I haven't seen Joker yet, so I have no reason to be upset.

akshay, pls ditch da joker and work with ppl who knows their job

i mean i wonder how he agreed to do a shriish movie

mental asylums and aliens :O 🤣🤣

Work with directors who have had a particularly crappy art history, make sure that all those movies are nicely high-budgeted, so that you can waste EXTRA money that can go into doing something better, not bothering to expand yourself as an actor and confining yourself to shit scripts, shit plots, and shit stories

NO SHIT you're disappointed.
