Revealed: Akshay Kumar's Vintage Look In Airlift

Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film Airlift based on a true event revealed the second look of the film.

You can see in the picture Akshay Kumar at Old Street of Ras-Al-Khaimah, which looks just like Kuwait in 1990. Interestingly the director of the movie Raja Menon needed to recreate Kuwait and Baghdad of that time so he carried out shooting in an old street of Ras-Al-Khaimah.

Airlift is the story of Indians stranded in Kuwait during this traumatic time. A story of how they, with the help of Akshay Kumar as Ranjit Katyal, managed to survive the Iraqi invasion, and against all odds travelled a thousand kilometers across the border into Amman, Jordan.

From Amman, 1,70,000 Indians were brought home by the largest and the most successful evacuation ever attempted by any country, in the history of the world. Over 59 days, the Indian government systematically flew over 488 Air India commercial flights into a war zone to evacuate all 1,70,000 Indians and safely bring them back home.

Akshay Kumar starrer Airlift is directed by Nikhil Advani and Raja Krishna Menon, and is a co-production between T-series, Cape of Good Films, Crouching Tiger and Emmay Entertainment. The film is slated to release somewhere in January 2016.
