Akshay Kumar Rejects VFX-Heavy Action, Says “I Want to Do Real Stunts” Ahead of Bhoot Bangla Release

Actor Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan are again in the horror comedy genre with their latest film, which is titled "Bhoot Bangla." The film is expected to bring the popular duo back to the screens after 14 years. The film is creating a lot of buzz in the market, and people are excited to see the film. However, Akshay Kumar has also talked about the shooting of the action scenes in his films.

In an interview with PTI, actor Akshay Kumar said that the method of making action films has completely changed. While action scenes used to be realistic, now most of the work is done using VFX. According to him, it's not fun because it feels artificial. Akshay said, "I want to make a film that's completely real."

Akshay, who is trained in martial arts like karate, taekwondo, and kudo, added, "If I'm jumping, I'm actually jumping, not using VFX. If I'm kicking, I'm doing it myself, not like 15 people are helping someone kick."

He further added, "I want to make an action film without VFX. I'm saying this in the age of AI. People can think whatever they want, but I want to make a film that has real action. The audience can feel the hard work that went into it, not just AI or computer-assisted work."

Bhoot Bangla, directed by Priyadarshan, will release in theaters on April 10th.
