Akshay Kumar is currently gearing up for the release of Jolly LLB 2 wherein he will essay the character of a lawyer for the first time in his career.

The actor who recently completed 26 years in this industry considers himself lucky to get over the action star image by taking up different characters. In an interview Akshay Kumar revealed that he is almost done shooting for Toilet: Ek Prem Katha.

"It is a social satire and around 5 percent of shoot is still left. It is a story based on real incidents," said Kumar.

Akshay further confirmed that he will start shooting for Padman from the first week of March and they will take a few cinematic liberties. He said,

"I start shooting for Padman for first week of March. It is real story like you all know, but we will take a few cinematic liberties."

The movie also stars Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte in lead.
