Times
Are
Changing
Akshay
was
quoted
as
saying,
"It's
time
the
industry
as
a
whole
started
giving
that
respect
to
our
actresses."
Akshay
Is
Happy
To
Take
Up
Roles
Where
The
Spolight
Isn't
On
Him
"A
film
isn't
complete
without
a
hero.
Similarly,
movies
can't
be
made
without
the
heroine
either.
I
would
happily
do
these
roles
whenever
necessary,"
the
'Gold' actor
revealed.
A
Busy
Man
"As
an
actor
and
a
producer,
I
get
a
lot
of
scripts
every
day.
Some
of
them
are
good,
others
aren't."
Akshay
Wants
To
Produce
A
Female-Driven
Film
Akshay
revealed,
"Recently,
there
was
a
script,
which
dealt
with
the
topic
of
dowry,
which
I
really
liked.
But
you
have
to
get
everything
right,
and
that
hasn't
happened
yet.
It's
almost
like
fishing
where
you
cast
your
net
and
wait...
Sometimes
you
get
something
outstanding,
sometimes
you
don't.
But
yes,
my
team
and
I
have
discussed
the
idea
of
making
a
powerful
film
with
a
strong
female
character."
A
Brave
Step
With
female-centric
films
like
Raazi
and
Veere
Di
Wedding
receiving
love
from
the
audience
and
setting
the
cash
registers
ringing
at
the
box
office,
we
must
say
that
Akshay's
stance
as
an
actor
and
producer
is
quite
a
welcome
change
in
the
film
industry.
In
Other
News,
Recently
there
were
reports
doing
the
rounds
that
Akshay
Kumar
will
be
seen
playing
the
role
of
warrior
king
Prithviraj
Chauhan
in
Yash
Raj
Film's
next.
However
there
hasn't
been
any
official
confirmation
on
the
same
yet.
