agency,
expressed
his
desire

family
entertainers.
PTI
quoted
the
Bollywood
superstar
as
saying,
"I
want
to
try
my
hand
at
different
types
of
content.
I
don't
want
to
form
any
kind
of
image.
But
I
ensure
one
thing
that
the
films
I
do,
they
have
to
be
family
entertainers."
The
Prithviraj
star
further
said
that
he
would
never

to
be
associated
with
'ghinoni'
films
as

movies
to
be
watched
by
families
without
any
hesitancy.
Akshay
told
the
portal,
"I
don't
want
to
make
a
'ghinoni'
(filthy)
film.
Even
if
it
is
a
psycho-thriller
movie
or
a
social
drama,
it
should
be
viewed
by
families
without
any
hesitancy.
I
believe
in
making
films,
keeping
in
mind
its
message
and
the
commercial
aspects,
that
will
entertain
the
family
audience."
