In Samrat Prithviraj (2022), Akshay Kumar portrayed the legendary warrior king, Prithviraj Chauhan. While the film was lauded for its scale and historical accuracy, some criticism emerged regarding Kumar’s appearance, with critics feeling his portrayal lacked the physical presence and regal essence expected from such an iconic figure.
"There is hardly anything about our culture and our Maharajas (in history books)", Akshay Jumar said, while appealing to the Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan to look into the matter.
The government will pay the SEBs Rs 7200 crore and there are plans to make power cheaper for Mumbai too, the Chief Minister of Maharastra Prithviraj Chavan said in an interview to CNBC-TV18.
