Akshay Kumar’s upcoming film ‘Airlift’ is one of the much awaited films of 2016. It is based on the real life incident of 1990 when Indians were being evacuated from Kuwait after Iraq invaded the country. While most of the film has been shot in Hindi, giving it a realistic touch will be the addition of Arabic language. According to a leading daily, a few scenes of Akshay Kumar have been shot in Arabic language, with subtitles being added to the scene for audience to understand. The makers decided to add the traditional language in ‘Airlift’ only in a few places to maintain the authenticity of the film. Directed by Raja Menon, ‘Airlift’ stars Nimrat Kaur as Akshay Kumar’s wife, and is all set to release on January 22.
