Akshay Kumar plays a con man in Tees Maar Khan and director Farah Khan says his role is inspired by English folklore hero Robin Hood.
"In Tees Maar Khan, Akshay plays an extra smart conman, who steals money from the rich and gives it to the poor, someone like Robin Hood," said Farah.
This is Farah's third film after Main Hoon Na and Om Shanti Om, but first one without Shah Rukh Khan who played main lead in both her previous movies.
Farah is expected to release the film on Christmas. Apart from Akshay, Tees Maar Khan also stars Katrina Kaif, Akshaye Khanna, Arya Babbar, Aman Verma and Ali Asgar.
With Tees Maar Khan, Akshay is gearing up for an image makeover. He will be seen sporting an Indian Muslim look. Renowned designer Aki Narula has worked on his costumes alongside an international team of make up artists and hairdressers.
Apart from directing, Farah is judging the dance reality show Dance India Dance Li'l Masters.
"I am a reality show junky. I enjoy judging because these shows make us believe there is so much talent here. I feel reality shows are a great platform as it gives great exposure as well as recognition to individuals. As a judge I'll try not to be harsh to the kids," said Farah.
When asked what she thinks of the government guidelines that children under a certain age should not be a part of reality shows, Farah said, "If these kids are not brought forward how will we get to know they are so talented?"
"I feel it depends upon the parents how they mould their children, whether they turn out to be aggressive or take the competition in a healthy way."
