After
charming
the
audience
with
her
popular
TV
shows,
Mouni
Roy
is
all
set
to
make
her
debut
in
Bollywood
with
Akshay
Kumar
starrer
Gold,
which
hits
the
big
screens
next
week.
The
film
has
Mouni
playing
Akshay's
wife
and
going
by
the
trailer
and
songs,
we
must
say
they
share
some
amazing
chemistry
on-screen.
Talking
about
team
Gold,
Mouni
said,
"It
is
a
dream
come
true
to
do
a
movie
with
these
superlative
people."
While
speaking
about
Akshay
Kumar,
the
actress
added,
"Akshay
is
not
just
a
great
co-actor
but
he
is
also
a
beautiful
human
being,
He
always
use
to
keep
the
environment
on
the
sets
very
light-hearted.
There
is
no
hierarchy
on
the
set.
He
treats
everyone
equally,
whether
a
person
is
the
director
of
the
film
or
a
spot
boy.
But
when
it
comes
to
scenes
he
is
sincere
in
every
single
shot.
When
you
see
him
in
action
you
realize
why
he
is
where
he
is."
Meanwhile,
Akshay
recently
called
Tapan
Das
his
most
interesting
character
till
date.
In
Gold,
he
plays
the
role
of
a
hockey
coach
who
trains
team
India
to
win
its
first
gold
medal
as
a
free
nation
at
the
1948
Olympics
in
field
hockey.
From
the
film's
trailer
and
songs,
Tapan
Das
comes
across
as
a
diligent
but
funny
man.
However,
Akshay
Kumar
says,
"Tapan
is
not
a
goofy
or
humorous
character,
it
is
his
quirks
that
makes
the
scene
funny."
Sharing
details
about
Tapan's
character's
inspiration,
director
Reema
Kagti
said,
"The
person
who
inspired
his
character
is
very
controversial,
alcoholic,
unpopular
and
argumentative
but
at
the
same
time
he
knows
the
game
really
well."
Earlier
in
an
interview,
Akshay
had
said
that
it's
frivolous
to
compare
Gold
with
Shahrukh
Khan's
Chak
De!
India,
which
was
also
based
on
hockey.
The
superstar
was
quoted
as
saying,
"
Everything
will
be
a
competition.
For
me,
it
is
all
about
doing
a
good
film.
Chak
De...
was
a
different
story,
Gold
is
different.
It
is
frivolous
to
even
think
like
that
or
competing
with
that
film.
Don't
compare
it,
it
is
all
different."
Talking
about
why
he
chose
to
take
up
the
film,
he
quipped,
"He
is
a
controversial
guy.
He
is
a
drunk
and
a
cheater.
But
within
a
year,
he
brought
11
people
together,
made
a
team
and
went
for
Olympics,
won
the
gold
medal.
I
felt
this
story
was
unbelievable
and
needed
to
be
told."
