Akshay Kumar plays a patriot and hockey player in his upcoming film Gold. While we have already seen the teaser of the Reema Kagti directorial, the makers of the film have shared a new poster featuring Akshay. With passion in his eyes and the national flag held close to his heart, Akshay looks convincing in the role of hockey legend Balbir Singh.

Akshay, who plays a Bengali hockey coach in his Independence Day release, posted the new poster of Gold on Twitter and wrote, “Desh banta hai jab sab deshvasiyon ki aankhon mein ek sapna hota hai. #Gold15Aug (A country is formed when countrymen have a dream in their eyes)” The producer of the film Farhan Akhtar also shared the poster on his Twitter handle and captioned it as, “All victories begin with a dream. It fills me with immense joy to present to you the official poster of #Gold, a film that is very close to my heart.”
