Burj Khalifa rejects promotion of akshay kumar's Burj Khalifa song

The horror-comedy is slated for a Diwali release, which is November 9, on Disney+ Hotstar. However, a poor quality version of the film leaked online on Wednesday. Akshay Kumar had proposed the idea of promoting the song ‘Burj Khalifa’ on the actual Burj Khalifa. The producers dug the idea at first but after calculating the expenses, they decided to pass. A source said, “The Fox Star Studios team liked the idea but found it commercially unviable. They realized that flying Akshay Kumar, Kiara Advani and others in a private jet to Dubai, accommodating them in a luxurious hotel, booking the Burj Khalifa for the promotions, taking care of safety and sanitization etc would cost somewhere around Rs. 65-70 lakhs. The management didn’t feel the need to spend so much at a time when the financial condition of the industry is not up to the mark. Hence, they politely declined the idea. Akshay Kumar understood their point of view and agreed.”

Akshay and Kiara had shot for this Laxmmi Bomb song soon after returning from their respective annual holidays earlier this year. ‘Burj Khalifa’ is choreographed by Ganesh Acharya, and according to Mumbai Mirror, the lead pair will don multiple avatars in the song. It has been shot at a lot of places in Dubai including, Burj Khalifa, Meydan Bridge, Jumeihra Beach and Marina City. More than 100 background dancers had participated in the shoot.
