New Delhi:

Akshay Kumar, yet again, confirmed the current status of “Mission Bell Bottom” and it reads “accomplished.” The 53-year-old actor had flown into UK in August, when the shooting of Bell Bottom began. On September 1, 40 something days later, Akshay Kumar tweeted that Bell Bottom is “complete”, making it the first film to have started and wrapped its shoot schedule during the pandemic. Having traversed between London and Glasgow in the past few weeks, Akshay Kumar finally revealed the next stop on his itinerary – after Bell Bottom‘s wrap, the actor is now headed home. “Mission accomplished! After a long but fruitful schedule, grateful to have shot and completed Bell Bottom during the pandemic! Now it’s time to head back. Jet set go,” Akshay Kumar wrote along with a photo of his co-star Vaani Kapoor. Bell Bottom is a spy thriller set in the eighties and also stars Huma Qureshi and Lara Dutta.
