The word
'Khiladi' became synonymous with
Akshay Kumar, when the superstar worked in eight films in a row with the same title.
Tips Company who had produced the
'Khiladi' franchise who is working on the second installment is actively casting for the movie.
When questioned about the same,
Ratan Jain confessed that they are on a lookout for a younger 'Khiladi', but would approach Akshay Kumar for a role in 'Khiladi 2'.
Sources reveal that 'Khiladi 2' has some deadly stunts that require a younger actor, but Jain is trying to be politically correct as he states, "The story is about a younger boy."
When it comes to franchisees, production houses have always opted for younger actors, be it even Spiderman or Superman. And now Tips is going the same route as they want to cash in on the 'Khiladi' title but with a younger face.
