Hrithik vs Akshay: who is B-town supporting?

After Ranveer Singh, Salman Khan and Sonam Kapoor too have come out in support of Akshay Kumar starrer Rustom. Everyone’s been talking about the big clash, which happens this week. Akshay Kumar’s Rustom is going head to head against Hrithik Roshan’s Mohenjo Daro at the box office. And not just the audience, but the industry stands divided. But, surprisingly, everyone in the industry has come out to support Akki over Hrithik. Hrithik’s close friends from the industry have not done anything to promote Mohenjo Daro and it is surprising to see how people have alienated him and his film completely.

Meanwhile, Hrithik Roshan, who is busy promoting Mohenjo Daro, has opened up about the film fraternity supporting Akshay Kumar-starrer-Rustom over his upcoming historical drama. On being asked about the same, Hrithik, 42, was quoted as saying, “It is a good thing. It’s a fraternity. If someone needs support then we must support.” A host of celebrities, including Salman Khan, Ranveer Singh and Sonam Kapoor, have extended their support to Rustom. Releasing on August 12, both films deal with different subject as Rustom starring Ileana D’Cruz is based on an infamous case involving a Navy officer, while Mohenjo Daro, starring debutant Pooja Hegde, is set in 2016 BC in the ancient city of Mohenjo-daro in the era of the Indus Valley civilisation.
