After SRK, it is the turn of Mr. Khiladi

Few days back, we got the news that Shahrukh Khan is all set to get the name SRK registered at the Trademark Registry. In somewhat we may refer to as following the suit, Akshay Kumar is heard to be making efforts to get the name 'Khiladi' registered at the Trademark Registry. 

He has been acted in seven Khiladi movies since 1992. Also, he is awaiting his eighth outing with the upcoming Khiladi 786. He is set to take his association with the successful franchise a step forward. 

“Khiladi has become a brand that Akshay is associated with. And Akshay is very emotional about it. That’s why he has decided to apply for a trademark,” says an insider. He further adds that “The idea is to bar its usage for commercial purposes, including films, TV, advertisements and other industries".
