He surely is the busiest man in Bollywood. Barely a month after he touched the patriotic strings in our hearts with Airlift, Akshay Kumar is back as a naval officer for his upcoming period film Rustom.
The 48-year old Kumar took to Twitter to share the first look of the film, which is directed by debutant Tinu Suresh Desai.

"The film is set in the late 1950s and is a pure work of fiction. Rustom is inspired from certain real life incidents that happened in the past and will be shot in India as well as in Britain," Shital Bhatia of production company Friday Filmworks had told IANS.
As the name suggests, Akshay would be playing Rustom Pavri, a Parsi naval officer in the film. This would be his first role as a Parsi, the minority section mainly living in Mumbai and Gujarat.
