Akshay Kumar shared a picture from his upcoming film 'Sooryavanshi' which is set to hit the screens on March 27, 2020. The picture shows him as Veer Sooryavanshi with Ranveer Singh as Simmba and Ajay Devgn as Singham.

Sharing the post, Akshay wrote: “The desi Avengers of the Cop universe! When ‘Singham’ meets ‘Simmba’ meets #Sooryavanshi, expect not just fireworks but a full-blown blast on 27th March, 2020.” The Rohit Shetty film, which will extend the director’s cop universe with the introduction of Veer Sooryavanshi, shows Akshay facing the camera. He has a hand each on the shoulders of Ranveer and Ajay (who have their backs to the camera). Behind Akshay, a group of officers, in full gear, stand in position.

Earlier, Katrina took to Instagram to introduce Akshay’s character in the film. She shared a photograph of a name tag with Veer Sooryavanshi written on it on a police uniform. She captioned the image: “Now Shooting #sooryavanshi #onset @itsrohitshetty @akshaykumar @karanjohar.”

Katrina and Akshay will be seen together in a film after nine years. The two have previously worked in films such as 'Namastey London', 'Singh Is Kinng', 'Humko Deewana Kar Gaye', 'Welcome' and 'Tees Maar Khan.' Speaking about Akshay, Katrina said: “Akshay is one of the most hardworking actors I know. In fact I learnt so much from him - the dedication, the punctuality. It also helps that he has a great sense of humour.”

Akshay’s character Veer Sooryavanshi, had a cameo as an anti-terrorist squad officer in the 2018 Simmba, starring Ranveer Singh. The 'Padmaavat' actor, who had been stationed in London for the past few months for the shoot of his upcoming film, '83', left for Hyderabad to commence shooting for 'Sooryavanshi' in which he will be seen playing a cameo.
