Akshay Kumar and I shot this ad campaign for the Government of India to make people aware about their responsibilities post lockdown: R Balki

Ever since this morning, pictures of superstar Akshay Kumar with ace filmmaker R. Balki have been surfacing on the internet. Interestingly, the duo shot a special ad campaign for the Government of India in order to raise awareness about the post lockdown responsibilities for every individual.

Just when the country is hit by the global health crisis with everyone locked inside their homes, Akshay and R. Balki shot for the campaign ensuring maximum safety through minimum crew, sanitized outdoor set, disinfectant screen and masks. Impressively, special permissions for the shoot were taken from the Maharashtra State Police. Directed by R. Balki and produced by Anil Naidu, the campaign is slated to go on air soon.
