He is not only going to be seen in 2019 in four films, but he is also having many projects for 2020 also. Recently, he announced his next film with producer Sajid Nadiadwala, Bachchan Pandey. The film will be an official remake of Ajith's 2914 released film Veeram. The first poster of Bachchan Pandey has already made a buzz that saw Akshay Kumar sporting black lungi with heavy golden chains in the neck.
By releasing the poster, the makers also announced the release date of Bachchan Pandey. The film will be releasing on Christmas 2020. The interesting thing is that Bachchan Pandey will now clash with Aamir Khan starrer Lal Singh Chaddha that is also scheduled to release in the same week.
"We have 52 Fridays in a year and even fewer holiday weekends. We make over 200 Hindi films a year while Hollywood releases 40 more and then there’s the South industry and other regional cinema. So, we should be happy if we have two big releases in a week. This year, on the Independence Day weekend we had three, (Mission Mangal, Batla House, and Saaho) till one bowed out," Akshay Kumar quoted in a reported.
