Elaborating on the film’s storyline, Akshay Kumar said in a statement: “It will make us realise how blessed are those who have sisters. It makes me happiest that my sister Alka is presenting and producing this film along with ace director Aanand L Rai. Can’t thank him enough for bringing me one of the most special films of my life,” reported PTI.
Aanand described Raksha Bandhan as a film which celebrates “relationships in the most beautiful way,” reported PTI. “Akshay is such a talented actor and I’m really excited to collaborate with him once again for Raksha Bandhan,” the director said in a statement.
