Akshay took to his Instagram account to share the poster and captioned the post, “Through every passing year, I understood life a bit better. Through every film of mine, I learned something new. They say every cloud has a silver lining, but the way I got love from my well wishers, my dreams met their destination and my clouds got a lining of Gold. As my age #TurnsGold, here’s presenting the poster of Gold, a film extremely close to my heart. (sic).”

In sync with the theme, the poster features Akshay’s side profile caught in a golden circle. It is superimposed on the iconic Olympic rings and “XIV Olympiad London 1948”.
“Gold” is said to be based on the life of Balbir Singh. For those of you who don’t know, Balbir is the man who led to India’s victory in hockey at the 1948 London Olympics, and it was India’s first gold medal after the independence. Apart from Akshay, “Gold” also stars Kunal Kapoor, Amit Sadh, Sunny Kaushal and Mouni Roy in pivotal roles.
“Gold” marks the first association between Akshay and Excel Entertainment led by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar. It will release on Independence Day, 2018.
