Mumbai: As his film Samrat Prithviraj is all set to release on the big screen, Bollywood’s ‘Khiladi’ Akshay Kumar and his co-star Manushi Chhillar performed a puja on the banks of river Ganga in Varanasi.
He was then seen taking a dip in the Ganga.
Akshay took to Instagram, where he posted a video of himself wearing a pink kurta and holding a prayer plate in his hands with diyas and flowers in it. Manushi is seen standing next to him dressed in a pink salwar-kurta. In one of her pictures, Manushi is seen praying, folding her hands, with her eyes closed.
Before jumping into the river, the actor was seen standing on a boat and joining his hands over his head.
He captioned the video: “Team #SamratPrithviraj in Varanasi yesterday.”
