Akshay Kumar and Kiara Advani starrer ‘Laxmii’ is all set to hit the OTT platform, Disney+Hotstar this Diwali on November 9. The film has received a huge backlash before its release due to its old title ‘Laxmmi Bomb’. However, after the film went for its censor certificate and post the screening, the makers had a discussion with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) and decided to change the title. Keeping in mind and respecting the sentiments of its viewers, the producers of ‘Laxmmi Bomb’- Shabinaa Khan, Tusshar Kapoor, and Akshay Kumar – decided to change the title of their film to ‘Laxmii’.
The film is a remake of the 2011 Tamil movie ‘Muni 2: Kanchana’, which was also directed by Raghava Lawrence. Besides Akshay Kumar and Kiara Advani, ‘Laxmii’ also features Ashwini Kalsekar, Sharad Kelkar, Manu Rishi, and Ayesha Raza.
Ahead of it’s release Akshay Kumar’s fans are super excited for the horror-comedy. The makers have also released a new poster featuring Kiara Advani on Saturday. The reaction of netizens waiting for the film is overwhelming. #LaxmiiWaliDiwali is trending on the microblogging site, Twitter ever since the new poster has been released.
