Karan Johar is not favouring me over Shah Rukh Khan : Akshay Kumar
Akshay Kumar will be playing underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara. The actor tells TWF correspondent Sreya Basu why he considers the film special for him
Why did you agree to do this film?
I did this film because in Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Dobara I got to do that thing which I didn't get to do in any of my films so far ... and that is, loving someone to death. I have done about 120-125 films so far, but the experience of this film was different. I got to play a different game altogether.
It was Emraan Hashmi who played Shoaib Khan in the prequel Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai (2010) and he was appreciated a lot for his performance. So is there any pressure to live up to that image and take it forward with the sequel?
There is no pressure. I am here to play my character. As far as living up to the image he set in the prequel is concerned, I did not get a chance to think about it. I just kept following what my director (Milan Luthria) asked me to do.
