Akshay Kumar's first look as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj has left netizens baffled. They can't believe that he repeated the same mistake again.
Akshay Kumar's first look as great Maratha king Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj from his debut Marathi film Vedat Marathe Veer Daudale Saat is out, and it has left the netizens baffled. The internet users are surprised by the fact that Akshay took the same shortcut method, and donned the costume of personality without much physical transformation.
Trade expert Taran Adarsh shared the first look at Kumar, from the film. He shared a 22 seconds clip, in which Akshay, dressed up as Shivaji walks into the frame. The video is supported with a hair-raising Jai Bhavani soundtrack, and probably that's the only best thing in the video.

As soon as the video got surfaced, netizens didn't waste much time and blasted the first look of the film. Akshay is been called a 'misfit' for the iconic character. Even Arya Babbar shared his discontent about Kumar's look. He wrote that only Riteish can justify it, "I love @akshaykumar bhaaji but im Sorry this role could and can only be justified by @riteishd." Another user wrote, "No disrespect but not convincing at all... Please don't ruin this." A user mocked the actor, and wrote "Itna jaldi daadhi muchh aa gya? 40 din ki mehnat hogi." A netizen added, "No it will be an insult to our King Shri Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj if Akshay plays his role! This guy Ak didn't even grew a moustache for the movie Samrat Pruthviraj Chauhan and completed the movie within 40days with no emotions & ave acting! We dn't wnt him to repeat it again and disrespect our King."
A few netizens added that Sharad Kelkar would have been the perfect choice for the role. A netizen wrote, "Isse accha Sharad kelkar ko lelete hai , woh best hai iss character ko play karne ke liye....... Yeh Canadian actor ko kyu leliya." Another netizen added, "Phirse nakli mostach aur dadi."
Earlier, Akshay Kumar was criticised for his portrayal of king Prithviraj Chauhan in Samrat Prithviraj. The film met with negative reviews, and it was a disappointment at the box office. Vedat Marathe Veer Daudale Saat will release in cinemas on Diwali 2023.
