The 'Flying Sikh' has two in the running too. Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra who's readying to film his biopic 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag', centred around the life of the 75 year old sports legend Milkha Singh, is thick in the midst of a casting dilemma.
Mehra is keen to pencil in Abhishek Bachchan for the eponymous role, while Singh has expressed that he'd like Akshay Kumar to portray him onscreen.
"Akshay is a 'Punjab da puttar' and he has the right physique," says Singh in a media chat. "Besides, he also acts well."
Mehra has been doing his round of fence sitting, by telling an eager media that, "It's too early to say anything now, since Prasoon Joshi has to finalise the script."
