Akshay
Kumar
seems
to
be
on
a
signing
spree
these
days.
The
actor
had
recently
made
an
announcement
on
Twitter,
about
his
new
film
Gold
to
be
helmed
by
Reema
Kagti.
Now
here's
some
latest
scoop
on
Akky's
new
movie.
If
reports
are
to
be
believed
then
the
Rustom
actor
will
be
seen
playing
the
role
of
hockey
legend
Balbir
Singh.
A
DNA
report
quoted
a
source
saying,
"Though
the
world
is
aware
of
Dhyan
Chand,
there
is
another
hockey
hero
who
has
ironically
not
been
talked
about
in
the
same
breath.
However,
the
fact
is
that
Balbir
Singh
was
the
hero
of
the
gold
campaign
that
India
enjoyed
not
just
in
1948
but
also
1952
and
1956
Olympics."
The
movie
set
in
1948
revolves
around
the
time
when
India
won
its
first
ever
Olympic
gold
medal
as
a
free
nation.
Gold
is
slated
to
hit
the
theatrical
screens
on
15th
August,
2018.
Meanwhile
Akshay
has
a
string
of
releases
coming
up
next
which
include
Jolly
LLB
2,
2.0,
Crack
and
Toilet:
Ek
Prem
Katha.
