Akshay Kumar will be seen wearing a saree for the first time on screen in Laxmmi Bomb. He spoke about the challenges of wearing it in an interview with Maniesh Paul. He said, "In one word, saree is the most graceful outfit in the world. Wearing a saree has been one of a kind experience for me. Frankly speaking, donning a saree is very difficult. During the initial days of the shoot, my saree would often unwrap by itself while shooting. I wasn't able to move properly while being in a saree, forget about dancing and fighting in it. Thanks to my costume designer who would come to my rescue in every break to rearrange the plaits and balance the pallu."
The actor spoke about the film and said, "It's been 30 years of my career, the character of Laxmmi remains the most mentally intensive role. But I managed it somehow. I thank my director Raghava Lawrence - how this character walks, talks, dances - he told he all about it. I have imitated him. If this film performs, it will be because of him."
As you might be aware, Laxmmi Bomb is the Hindi remake of Raghava's Tamil film Kanchana. On the film's title, Akshay said, "Our Tamil film was named after the main lead character Kanchana. Kanchana means 'gold' which is a form of Lakshmi. Earlier I considered going the same way for the Hindi remake but we collectively decided that the name must appeal to the Hindi audience as well and what better than Laxmmi. By god's grace, it was turning out to be a cracker of a film, so we named it Laxmmi Bomb. Like a dhamaka of Laxmmi Bomb cannot be missed, the transgender lead character is powerful and radiant. Hence the name fits perfectly."
The film also stars Kiara Advani.
