He’s played all kinds of characters on screen, now Akshay Kumar is ready to appear as a freedom fighter, and not just any freedom fighter... but the legendary Tipu Sultan. He’s likely to produce this film himself, sources say, because he finds the subject very intriguing. Aware of how huge the subject is, and eager to chronicle Tipu Sultan’s freedom struggle accurately, Akshay is looking into research on this historical figure and planning a grand portrayal of the man on screen. He may tie up with a big production house, because it will be a mega budget film with himself in the lead, added the sources. Tipu Sultan was the subject of a tele serial made by Sanjay Khan years ago. The sets had got gutted in a fire that injured many, including Sanjay Khan. But Akshay is undaunted by the memory of this ill luck. If anything, he is backing his newfound success at the box office to be his good omen in this venture.
