Akshay
Kumar
has
three
releases
scheduled
in
2020
and
three
more
in
next
year,
2021.
This
morning
while
announcing
the
change
in
release
date
for
upcoming
release,
Bachchan
Pandey,
Akshay
Kumar
also
introduced
a
drastic
change
in
his
first
look
for
the
film.
The
first
look
of
Bachchan
Pandey
was
first
shared
by
the
actor,
back
in
July
2019.
Since
then,
Akshay
has
released
several
films
including
Mission
Mangal,
Housefull
4
and
Good
Newwz,
and
is
now
gearing
up
for
three
films
this
year.
The
new
poster
shows,
Akshay
Kumar
in
a
more
macho
and
bulked
up
look.
His
character
seems
to
have
been
through
many
battles
and
has
several
scars
on
his
face.
Check
out
the
differences
in
both
posters:
The
two
posters
highly
contrast
each
other,
the
old
one
shows
Akshay
Kumar
sporting
a
simple
moustache
with
rugged
body.
He
can
be
seen
donning
a
South
Indian
tilak
on
his
forehead
and
wearing
a
black
lungi.
With
an
aggressive
stare,
he
looks
ready
to
enter
a
fight
with
a
nunchuck.
The
new
poster
released
today
has
a
close-up
look
at
the
actor's
character.
Our
best
guess
is
other
details
of
the
character
are
left
the
same.
Akshay
here
is
seen
donning
a
heavy
bearded
and
has
a
warrior's
moustache.
Instead
of
the
tilak,
he
is
wearing
a
red
bandana
across
his
head
with
the
same
gold
chains
around
his
neck.
While
his
intense
look
remains
the
same,
the
biggest
noticeable
change
is
the
scar
across
his
face,
which
probably
also
cost
him
his
right
eye.
The
scar
goes
from
his
forehead
on
the
right
to
his
left
cheek
across
his
nose.
It
could
be
the
overall
look,
but
Akashy
also
looks
a
bit
more
buff
than
in
the
previous
poster.
His
hair
has
also
changed
colour
from
jet
black
to
a
mix
of
black
and
grey.
It
could
also
mean
the
film's
script
has
gone
through
several
changes,
including
his
age,
past
and
personality.
Take
a
look:
Bachchan
Pandey
now
scheduled
to
release
on
January
22,
2021,
is
reportedly
based
on
2014's
Tamil
release
starring
Ajith.
The
action
film
followed
the
lead
as
he
secretly
brought
down
the
enemies
of
his
fiancee's
father,
to
protect
the
love
of
his
life.
The
story
would
have
matched
best
with
Akshay's
previous
first
look
as
the
Bachchan
Pandey,
but
with
the
missing
eye
and
scars
on
his
face,
it
seems
unlikely
for
his
character
to
be
able
to
do
anything
secretly.
Bachchan
Pandey
earlier
scheduled
to
release
this
Christmas
was
moved
for
Aamir
Khan's
next
release,
Laal
Singh
Chaddha.
The
film
is
Aamir's
return
to
screen
after
2018's
release,
Thugs
Of
Hindostan
that
tanked
at
the
box
office.
Akshay's
future
releases
scheduled
till
2021
include
Bell
Bottom,
Rohit
Shetty's
Sooryavanshi
co-starring
Katrina
Kaif,
Prithviraj
which
will
debut
Miss
World
Manushi
Chhillar,
Laxmi
Bomb,
and
Hera
Pheri
