Hyderabad: Akshay Kumar took to Twitter to announce a rare feat his latest flick has achieved. ‘Bell Bottom’ was screened at the world’s highest mobile theatre at Leh – at an altitude of 11,562 ft.
“Makes my heart swell with pride that Bell Bottom was screened at World’s highest mobile theatre at Leh in Ladakh. At an altitude of 11562 ft, the theatre can operate at -28 degrees C. What an amazing feat (sic),” Akshay tweeted on Sunday.
‘Bell Bottom’ stars Akshay as the lead character, with Lara Dutta, Vaani Kapoor, and Huma Qureshi in other prominent roles. The film is inspired by real-life hijacking events in India by Khalistani separatists during the 1980s, such as the Indian Airlines Flight 423, 405, and 421 hijackings.
Despite being the first Hindi film to release in theatres post the second lockdown, it is doing pretty well at the box office. Calling the movie “gripping”, film critic Taran Adarsh had tweeted, “#BellBottom is an entertainer meant for the #BigScreen experience… Loaded with super performances and absorbing second half… #AkshayKumar sparkles yet again… #RanjitTiwari’s direction is top-notch. #BellBottomReview (sic).”
