KARACHI: Superstar Akshay Kumar has been assisting his one-time Martial Arts student Prateek Chakraborty in his debut film.

Chakraborty is the grandson of famous Director Pramod Chakraborty, who directed the movie “Deedar” featuring Akshay Kumar. The movie was a smash-hit when released in 1992.

Chakraborty said, “When Akshay was shooting for my granddad’s film Deedar, he taught me Martial Arts. I stopped training and he also got busy with his film career. But I have always been close to him.”

Speaking about the project Prateek said, “Akshay supporting me is a huge deal.”
