Akshay Nimrat Kaur

"Take charge and feel empowered," wrote Nimrat Kaur, who co-starred with Akshay Kumar in patriotic movie Airlift

"It was a really different kind of show to work on. It is a genre that I personally don't watch, or am crazy about. It was interesting and definitely out of my comfort zone," says Nimrat Kaur

Twinkle Khanna shared on Twitter: "Son saw Airlift and said, 'Mom you always nag dad -he works too much - after seeing this, isn't it worth it?'." Akshay Kumar's Airlift released on Friday to stupendous response from critics and audience alike. The film also stars Nimrat Kaur

Directed by Raja Krishna Menon, Airlift is based on the evacuation of Indians from Kuwait in 1990. Akshay plays an influential businessman. Nimrat Kaur plays his wife. The film is the third of Akshay's films with a patriotic theme after 2014's Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty and Baby which released in 2015

"Delighted to inform fans of Airlift in UAE that our film has been cleared for release. It's releasing across 70 screens in the Middle East," Akshay Kumar posted on Twitter. Directed by Raja Krishna Menon, Airlift is based on the evacuation of Indians from Kuwait during the 1990 invasion by Iraq

Ahead of Republic Day and the release of his upcoming film Airlift, actor Akshay Kumar has paid a beautiful tribute to the many unsung heroes of India.

"It's not a war film and it's not about destruction. It is just the story of how people were rescued from that war zone. The real life hero went unnoticed. Not many people know about him. I hope that he gets recognition with this film," said Akshay Kumar. Airlift, which also stars Nimrat Kaur, has been directed by Raja Menon

"I just remembered that there is one script, I wanted to make it, it's a woman (related) thing. I was just looking at her (Nimrat) and I thought 'I have to ask her about this'. I did a film called Aitraaz, it was a film which belonged to Kareena and Priyanka," said Akshay Kumar

Akshay Kumar, who plays Kuwait-based businessman Ranjit Katyal in the movie, wrote on Twitter: "A true story that will make you #ProudToBeIndian". Directed by Raja Krishna Menon, Airlift also stars actors Nimrat Kaur and Purab Kohli. The film is slated to hit the screens on January 22, 2016

The first song from Akshay Kumar's movie Airlift, Soch Na Sake, is a brilliant romantic track sung by Arijit Singh. The song ends on a rather unexpected note with Akshay Kumar taken hostage by police forces and a loud gunshot, and leaves arouses a sense of tense anticipation of what happens next

"This is a completely original story and is non-fictional. Airlift is about a Kuwait based businessman, who was stuck along with more than one lakh people, who were staying in Kuwait at that time. Airlift and Argo are different and can't be compared," said Akshay Kumar

"It is a dramatic film. It is about the trial and tribulations which these people had to face. It is not in one go that this man came up with a plan. There were a lot of disappointments. So it is a constant back and forth," said Nimrat Kaur

"What an amazing teaser! I had goosebumps and all," Twinkle Khanna posted on Twitter. Airlift is inspired by the 1990 evacuation of over a lakh Indians from a Kuwait under attack. The Raja Krishna Menon-directed film also stars Nimrat Kaur

In 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait. Expatriate Indians living in both countries were evacuated between August 13 and October 11 on board Indian Airlines flights, the government having tried and abandoned the use of military aircraft because of problems in getting airspace clearance

"There are so many Indians who have good roles in American TV shows like Kunal Nayyar, Archie Punjabi and even Irrfan Khan. I think Irrfan is a pioneer in that sense. This is nothing new. It has been happening for a while. It is just that more attention is given to it now," said Nimrat
