'Bachchan Pandey' First Look Poster: Lungi-clad Akshay Kumar is the Bachchan Pandey

Akshay Kumar is doing a stream of films back to back and the curiosity level for each film is raising the bar-meter of expectation.

This time he revealed his next upcoming film Bachchan Pandey and unveiled its new look poster.

Akshay Kumar, dressed in a lungi with a three-stroked teeka on his forehead and nunchaku in his hand, looks aggressively at the viewers in the poster of the film, which will be directed by Farhad Samji and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala. 

Akshay shared the first poster of his film and wrote, "Coming on Christmas 2020! In and as Bachchan Pandey. In Sajid Nadiadwala's next, directed by Farhad Samji." Farhad, who is also directing Akshay in work-in-progress film Housefull 4, also shared the same poster.

Bachchan Pandey will be his third release of 2020 after Sooryavanshi and Laxmmi Bomb.
