AKSHAY KUMAR THANKS EX-GORKHA OFFICER FOR POINTING OUT MISTAKE IN FILM'S POSTERS
Akshay will play the legendary war hero, Major General Ian Cardozo, in Gorkha. He shared posters and announced the film yesterday (October 15). After Akshay shared the posters, Major Manik M Jolly, an ex-Gorkha officer, pointed out that the Khukri used in the posters is not correct. He wrote, "Dear @akshaykumar ji, as an ex Gorkha officer, my thanks to you for making this movie. However, details matter. Kindly get the Khukri right. The sharp edge is on the other side. It is not a sword. Khukri strikes from inner side of blade. Ref pic of Khukri att. Thanks (sic)."
Akshay quickly responded to him and wrote, "Dear Maj Jolly, thank you so much for pointing this out. We’ll take utmost care while filming. I’m very proud and honoured to be making Gorkha. Any suggestions to get it closest to reality would be most appreciated (sic)."
