IANS, 07 Aug, 2018 01:45 PM

Actor Udaybir Sandu feels lucky to work with Akshay Kumar in his first film "Gold", and says he is a great human being.

Born in Tarn Taran, a small district in Amritsar, Udaybir was always into sports while growing up. He says he bonded with Akshay over sports.

"'Gold' is my first film in Bollywood and I am happy I got an opportunity to work with Akshay Kumar," Udaybir said in a statement to IANS.

"He is a great human being and a brilliant actor. When not shooting the whole cast and crew used to play cricket on the sets and its a great way to bond with the whole team," he added.

A historical sports drama inspired by India's first Olympic gold medal, "Gold" traces the "golden era" of Indian hockey through the journey of Tapan Das, a young assistant manager in 1936, who dreams of playing for an independent nation.

The film also features Amit Sadh, Kunal Kapoor, Sunny Kaushal, Vineet Kumar Singh and Mouni Roy. Directed by Reema Kagti, it releases on August 15.
