Kesari perfect film to work with Akshay: Parineeti

Parineeti Chopra says Kesari is the perfect film for her to work with Akshay Kumar, with whom she has been wanting to collaborate for a long time.

Asked about her role in the film, Parineeti says, "That is a secret, but I am very excited and very honoured that I am in Kesari because it is one of the biggest films Dharma Productions is making. I really wanted to work with Akshay Sir for a really long time. I think this is the perfect film because he is Punjabi and he feels for the subject that the film is based on."

"It's going to be a mammoth film, so I am very excited to start shooting of Kesari," she adds.

Directed by Anurag Singh, Kesari is based on the battle of Saragarhi and is slated for a 2019 Holi release.
