  • Akshay Kumar unveils 'The Shaukeens' trailer
Actor-producer Akshay Kumar Saturday unveiled the trailer of "The Shaukeens" in the presence of the film's entire starcast.
 
"I am playing myself in the film and the only thing that was added in my character was that I was shown as an alcoholic in the movie which is different from my real life character. I had a great time shooting for this film," he told reporters at the event.
