Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9:' Akshay Kumar to promote 'Rustom' on the show?

Dance reality show "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9" is yet to start, but names of celebrity guests appearing on the show have already started doing the rounds. After Hrithik Roshan, reports of Akshay Kumar appearing in one of the episodes have now surfaced online.
Akshay will appear on the show to promote his Aug. 12 release "Rustom," Tellychakkar reported. However, there has been no official announcement from the makers of "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 9" or Akshay on the same.
There are also unconfirmed reports that Hrithik would be the first guest on the show. He will appear to promote his film "Mohenjo Daro," which also releases on the same day as "Rustom."
Meanwhile, the reality show is expected to go on air by the end of this month on Colors TV. Karan Johar, Jacqueline Fernandez and Ganesh Hegde will judge the show, while viewers' favourite Manish Paul will return as the host.
Manish has hosted "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa" for four years now and the ninth season will mark his fifth year on the dance reality show. And to host the show, he has apparently charged Rs. 2.5 crore, making him the highest paid non-Bollywood celebrity host.

The dance reality show will run for around four months on Colors TV, starting from the end of July. This year, nine celebrity contestants will participate, including celebrity chef Harpal Singh Soni, "Hate Story 2" actress Surveen Chawla, "Bigg Boss 9" fame Karishma Tanna, "Swaragini" actress Helly Shah, "Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi" actor Shakti Arora, "Naagin" actor Arjun Bijlani, YouTube sensations and Bharatnatyam/Hip-Hop fusion dancing twins Priyanka and Poonam Shah and Shopkeeper Gaurav Gera as chutki.

Akshay Kumar is almost unrecognisable in the villainous scientist look for Rajinikanth starrer 2.0, see pics

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar, who will be seen playing the role of a villain in Rajinikanth starrer 2.0, is almost unrecognisable in the crow look pictures that have been doing the rounds on Twitter.

Akshay’s pictures in his villainous avatar are bound to shock his fans. Akshay sports long eye bushes, grey hair and wears a feathered leather jacket. According to reports, Akshay Kumar’s character in 2.0 is of Dr Richard, a scientist, who turns into a crow. 

Makers had been trying hard to keep Akshay’s crow look under wraps for a while. Looks like Akshay’s look got leaked after he was spotted shooting for 2.0 amidst the crowd at New Delhi’s Jawahar Lal Nehru stadium.

The movie is a sequel to Rajinikanth’s hit film Enthiran. Akshay has been a part of South movie remakes earlier, but will be seen acting in a South movie this time. Also this is the first time that he will be sharing screen space with Rajinikanth. “Akshay has undergone complete makeover for his role,” a source from the film’s unit said. “The Delhi schedule will be wrapped up in the next two weeks. The team will next head to Morocco for another long schedule and will shoot important portions of the film,” the source added. Rajinikanth is yet to join the Delhi schedule. Directed by Shankar, the movie is being made with a budget of Rs. 3.5 billion. The film which also features Akshay’s ‘Singh is Bliing’ co-actor Amy Jackson will release in 2017. -
