Akshay is known for his comedy and action films. This film (Airlift) doesn't have these things, it has drama. There is brand new Akshay Kumar (in the film)," Nikhil told PTI.
The 44-year-old director revealed at first he did not offer "Airlift" to Akshay as he thought the "Baby" actor would not like the concept.
