In fact, not only did Akki read the Gita, he also gifted a copy to every member of the film’s cast and crew. A source says, “When Akshay took on the role of God, he wanted to make sure the aesthetics in which his character was portrayed was not offensive. Akki himself is a firm believer in God.


In fact when Akshay told his mother that he would be playing God, she asked him to read the Bhagvad Gita before he plays the role. Akshay immediately obliged. He also gifted around 80 copies of the holy book to the cast and the crew.” Akshay remained unavailable for comment.u00a0
