Who will win the Punjab Elections?
On the professional front, Akshay will next be seen in 'Good Newwz' alongside Kareena Kapoor.
The story of the upcoming comedy-drama starring Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjh and Kiara Advani besides Kapoor and Kumar revolves around two married couples and their journey.
In the film, Akshay, Kareena, and Diljit, Kiara Advani are shown as couples trying to conceive a baby through IVF. However, they fall prey to a major goof-up when Akshay and Diljit's sperms are interchanged.
While Akshay-Kareena are shown as a more sophisticated and poised couple, Diljit and Kiara are the typical Punjabi ones - outspoken, friendly and fun!
Helmed by Raj Mehta, 'Good Newwz' will hit the theatres on December 27 this year.
