It’s official! Akshay Kumar‘s next release is now called Gabbar Is Back. There were talks about the film being called Main Gabbar, but the title that’s made the cut is Gabbar Is Back.

Confirms our source:

To begin with, the working title of the film was Gabbar. However, due to certain reasons, it couldn’t be finalized. The idea was to get something really catchy and there were quite a few options being thrown around. Since the film’s publicity material is set to be unveiled, it was about time that a striking title was finalized. This is when Gabbar Is Back was proposed and the makers had no hesitation in green lighting it.

The producers, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Viacom 18, Shabinaa Khan, are now gearing up to unleash the film’s promotion and marketing in quick time.

Our source adds:

The trailer would be out very soon and it is going to be an aggressive campaign. Very soon, you would hear a lot about Gabbar Is Back. This is going to be a legendary character for sure!

While the First Look of the film is now barely days away from release, there is a 50 days plan being laid down for Gabbar Is Back, en route its release on 1st May.

Akshay’s Baby is one of the biggest successes of the year so far, both commercially as well as critically. Now with Gabbar Is Back, the actor is only going to reach out to an added audience base.

We’re looking forward to this one!
