Recently, a new song featuring Akshay Kumar and Mrunal Thakur was released. While some people are loving Akshay Kumar and Mrunal Thakur’s chemistry in Kudiyee Ni Teri from Selfiee, others are finding it problematic to see Akshay romancing Mrunal Thakur, who is 25 years younger than him.

“I like Mrunal but I don’t like seeing her in Canada.”
Akshay Kumar and Mrunal Thakur look so problematic together on screen. 🙄

In case you don’t know, Akshay Kumar is 55 years old and Mrunal Thakur is 30 years old.
i’ve never really cared for mrunal that much besides sita ramam. tbh, i always wonder how her and radhika get so many projects despite being such average actors. but i just saw pictures from her upcoming movie with akshay who’s 25 years older than her and i am appalled 😬

Mrunal Thakur on working with Akshay Kumar for Kudiyee Ni Teri
Very few people are aware that Mrunal Thakur is playing a cameo role in the film that features Emraan Hashmi, Nushrratt Bharuccha, and Diana Penty as well.
Talking about shooting for a song with Akki, she said,
“I had a blast shooting for the song. Haven’t done something like this earlier and the vibe on the set was super fun and peppy, much like the number itself. I Shot for a few days for the song and it was a special experience. I’m excited to see the audience’s reaction to the song.”
Some people are also trolling Tanishk Bagchi for remaking another popular track.
“Tanishk Bagchi, keep your fucking hands off The PropheC,” said a fan.
Listen to the original version below:
Selfiee is the Hindi remake of the Malayalam movie Driving Licence, which starred Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suraj Venjaramoodu. The movie is set to be released in theatres on Feb 24.
