Akshay Kumar in talks with R Balki for a slice of life film!

Akshay Kumar is known to always have his hands full of projects. But that seldom keeps him from taking on more. Bollywood's Khiladi, who is on a roll after having delivered three consecutive Box Office hits, is reportedly in talks with acclaimed director, R Balki for a slice of life film.

The duo have been discussing a possible collaboration for a while now and if reports are to be believed, things may have finally fallen into place. Akshay is yet to sign on for the film, which is expected to go on floors in April 2017 after he is done shooting for Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and Crack.

If Akshay Kumar and Balki join hands, this would mean that Priyadarshan may have to delay work on his 91st film, starring Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif, as he has been unable to bag bulk dates from both stars in April. The film is now expected to go on floors sometime in the second half of 2017.
