Another day, another remake in B-town. The remake of the critically acclaimed Tamil film Soorarai Pottru has begun rolling in Bollywood with Akshay Kumar and Radhika Madan in the lead. While fans are already pissed with Bollywood’s continued obsession with remakes, Twitterati is also annoyed with the age gape between the two leads. Akshay and Radhika would be playing a married couple in the film, going by the original movie, and they have a 28-year age difference in real. Akshay Kumar is 54, while Radhika Madan is 26. Interestingly, Sara Ali Khan who played (SPOILER ALERT) Akshay’s daughter in Atrangi Re is of the same age as Radhika. Akshay Kumar and Radhika Madan Begin Filming Their Untitled Movie; Actor Asks Title Suggestions From Fans.

Really Uncomfortable?
I understand #RadhikaMadan is a fabolous actress and will do justice for #Bommi…
But casting her as the lead pair with someone who’s 28 years older than her is really getting very uncomfortable…#AkshayKumar #SooraraiPottruhttps://t.co/KcrcAXigxS

Horrible Casting?
Sorrarai Pottru remake. ??
This is possibly the worst time to do a remake, that too of a highly popular acclaimed content driven film of South. And horrible casting of Radhika Madan as wife of Akshay Kumar. ? https://t.co/u42eBXsPMj

Fun Facts?
couple of fun facts –
1. There is a 30 year age gap between the two leads.
2. Irrfan Khan played Radhika’s FATHER in Angrezi Medium,he was a year younger to Akshay Kumar.
3. There is a huge chance, Radhika Madans dad is most likely younger than @akshaykumar.
beyond creepy https://t.co/As7Ci2eelk

Gross?
Akshay Kumar now romancing with likes of Manushi Chillar, Radhika Madan, Sara, Kriti, Nusrat. All are less than half of his age..so gross.

It isn’t that the original Tamil film is faring better in this matter. Though there is no 28-year chasm here, but the leads of Soorarai Pottru – Suriya and Aparana Balamurali have a 20-year age gap between them.
