Akshay Kumar is married to former actress Twinkle Khanna, who is now the author of two bestsellers - Mrs FunnyBones (a compilation of her humour columns) and The Legend of Lakshmi Prasad (a collection of short stories).

Akshay's film is directed by R Balki and produced be Twinkle Khanna through Mrs FunnyBones Movies. Padman also stars Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte. The film is expected to release in the Republic day weekend in 2018 but the release date may get rescheduled if the makers of Rajinikanth's 2.0 also announce the release on the same day. In 2.0, Akshay plays principal antagonist.
Akshay Kumar's other films are Reema Kagti's Gold and Mogul, a biopic on slain T-Series owner Gulshan Kumar.
