‘Singh is Kinng’ in controversies


The hottest dude of Bollywood Akshay Kumar’s Sikh forthcoming movie ‘Singh is Kinng’ has been in controversies from the time the first promotional still of the film was released.

It is being said that his clean-shaven face with a trendy turban is a mere mockery of the Sikh culture.A photo of Akshay on the net is also greatly objected by Punjabi community in Australia.

However, director Vipul Shah tells the photo does not depict Akki’s real look in the film. It was taken without permission. Vipul Shah defends himself by saying that Akshay is himself a Punjabi and is working in close coordination with stylist Shabina Khan for his look in the film. Apart from this, a local Sikh is always on the sets to guide Akshay about how to wear a turban.

Vipul Shah is shooting almost half of the movie in Australia. And the second half will be shot in Punjab, Mumbai and Egypt.
