Marathi manoos Riteish Deshmukh is happy to see Akshay Kumar essay a Maharashtrian character in Khatta Meehta.

The actor tweets: "Akshay showed me footage of Khatta Meetha... absolutely thrilled to see AK play a Maharashtrian character Sachin Tichkule. Akki's Marathi in KM is better than mine (grrrr).

Priyan (director Priyadarshan) looks in full form finally a film on road constructions, contractors and potholes.

Akki's best line is when he says: "I make my livelihood by contracting the same road again n again n again" truth behind road constructions."
