Bollywood star Akshay Kumar spills details on facing ‘The Undertaker’ in a 1996 film
Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar reveals who played The Undertaker in the 1996 movie, Khatron Ke Khiladi.
The film starring Rekha and Raveena Tandon in lead roles went on to be a box office hit. But, the action sequence with a lookalike of WWE legend The Undertaker got fans thrilled and excited.
Going back 25 years, Kumar took to Twitter with a hilarious post :
“A hilarious note to mark 25 years to the release of Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi tomorrow! A fun fact though: it was wrestler Brian Lee who played The Undertaker in the film.”
Akshay Kumar stated that the role of The Undertaker was in fact played by wrestler Brian Lee. Lee is most famous for wrestling in Extreme Championship Wrestling, Smoky Mountain Wrestling and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
Akshay Kumar has been one of the standout actors in Bollywood over the last two decades. In 2021, he is going to be seen on screen again with movies like Bell Bottom and Bachchan Pandey. He will also be the lead role in Prithviraj.
Many other Bollywood figures were seen in the comments, including Varun Dhawan who commented “Last Man Standing.” Ayushmann Khurrana and Karan Kundrra were also seen enjoying the throwback post shared by Kumar.
The Undertaker will surely go down in history as one of the greatest ever in the sporting world. He spent over three and a half decades in WWE, and creating one of the biggest streaks in sports, finally ended by Brock Lesnar.
The Undertaker has won the WWF/WWE Championships, the World Heavyweight Championship, the Hardcore Championship and the World Tag Team Championship.
‘The Phenom’ is one of the most terrifying and haunting characters on-screen and frightened every opponent throughout his career. He is most definitely a future WWE Hall of Famer.
