Mogul: Akshay Kumar refutes rumours of walking out

Just a few days back, rumours of Akshay Kumar walking out of T-Series’ ‘Mogul’ broke the internet. Apparently, director Subhash Kapoor was not ready with the final script yet, and Akshay had all his ahead dates occupied.

Knowing that Akshay is someone who likes to be involved in a film’s production process as well, the reason was believable enough. But recently during a conversation with Bombay Times, the actor rubished rumours. (Also Read: Padman: A Muruganantham is happy that Akshay Kumar is portraying his story)

“Subhash is scripting the film. Only after the script is finalised will the production be scheduled, no?,” he said.

“We had never locked the dates with Akshay. Once the script is finalised, we will proceed with planning and scheduling the shoot. The priority is to get the script right. It’s not easy to tell a life story in two-and-a-half hours flat. And since ‘Mogul’ is based on my father’s life, we have invested emotionally in the project, especially my mother,”  producer Bhushan Kumar added.

The film narrates T-Series founder Gulshan Kumar’s tragic murder.
