Akshay captioned his photo as "Growing up my sister, Alka was my first friend. It was the most effortless friendship. @aanandlrai’s #RakshaBandhan is a dedication to her and a celebration of that special bond. Day one of the shoot today, need your love and best wishes. @bhumipednekar #AlkaHiranandani #HimanshuSharma @kanika.d @zeestudiosofficial @cypplofficial #CapeOfGoodFilms @harjeetsphotography."

We also came across a BTS still featuring Akshay with his onscreen sisters played by Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, Sadia Khateeb and Smrithi Srikanth.

'Raksha Bandhan' features Bhumi Pednekar as the female lead. 

The film was announced during the festival of Raksha Bandhan in 2020. Akshay wrote, "Hardly ever in life does one come across a story that touches your heart so deeply and so instantly...it’s the quickest I’ve signed a film in my career. A story that will make you laugh and it will make you cry. And it will make us realise how blessed are those who have sisters. Dedicating this film, #Rakshabandhan to my dear sister, Alka and to the most special bond in the world...that of a brother and sister."
