It
is
common
knowledge
that
actors
usually
get
into
the
character
they
play
but
for
the
first
time,
an
actor
is
going
into
a
different
time
period
altogether.
Well,
we've
always
heard
of
actors
doing
different
things
to
promote
their
films.
However,
Akshay
Kumar
is
all
set
to
take
promotions
on
a
different
level
altogether.
The
star
will
be
going
full
time
retro.
So
wherever
he
goes
and
whatever
he
does,
it
would
be
in
retro
style.
Akshay
is
going
this
extra
mile
to
now
promote
his
film
Action
Replayy.
Well,
the
buzz
is
that
from
tomorrow
onwards,
Akshay
is
going
to
go
retro.
Since
Action
Replayy
is
a
70s
story;
Akshay
is
going
to
don
only
retro
clothes
from
tomorrow
onwards.
So
if
he
makes
any
public
appearances,
shoots
for
any
other
film,
attends
parties,
basically
all
places
he
goes
to,
including
having
dinner
with
wife
Twinkle,
Akshay
will
be
seen
in
only
retro
attire.
To
go
retro
in
real
life,
Akshay
is
leaving
no
stone
unturned.
He
has
asked
designer
Shabina
Khan
to
design
a
full
fledged
wardrobe
of
retro
clothes,
which
he
can
wear
over
the
next
few
weeks.
Says
director
Vipul
Shah,
"Having
Akshay
Kumar
in
a
film
is
always
an
asset
for
any
director.
Akshay
is
so
passionate
about
every
film
he
does
that
he
himself
keeps
coming
up
with
ideas
to
promote
the
film.
Sometimes
we
have
to
remind
him
we
have
a
marketing
team
to
do
this
exact
job.
However,
Akshay
being
Akshay,
he
came
up
with
this
gem
of
an
idea.
In
fact,
he
was
so
excited
that
he
called
me
in
the
middle
of
the
night
to
inform
me
that
from
now
on,
to
the
day
Action
Replayy
releases,
he
will
only
be
wearing
retro
clothes."
Action
Replayy
is
about
Akshay
and
Aishwarya
Bachchan
revisiting
romance
retro
style.
What
is
to
be
seen
now
is
whether
Ash
is
ready
to
take
up
the
challenge.
