The actor said, "It's more on the science fiction" side of things with "a lot of action in it, I can say that." Further, Akshay, who has done social films like Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and Pad Man, spoke about his other project and revealed that it's a film on sex education, a topic he feels is important to talk about. "I like doing social films which can make a difference, especially in my country and in anybody's life."
"I just pick up those topics and I make a film, but I make it in a very commercial way where obviously there are songs, there's comedy, there's drama, there's tragedy. So, I take real stories and adapt it and cover it up with all the commercial things," said Akshay, reported Deadline. Red Sea International Film Festival aims to become the top fest and market in the region and a key driver in the kingdom's ongoing effort to build a film and TV industry practically from scratch after lifting its 35-year-old religion-related ban on cinema in 2017.
