Mumbai: Akshay Kumar is gearing up for the release of his latest – Airlift – which is slated to release this Friday. The film with a patriotic theme will rekindle nationalism in every Indian’s heart, believes Akshay.

Akshay took to Twitter to share a picture with the Minister who played a pivotal role in the evacuation of Indians and other nationals stranded in Yemen last year.
