Akshay Kumar hasn't shot a single day for Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2 so far but the makers have plans to bring this underworld gaga right on schedule next Independence day weekend.

Though there have been speculations around whether this is a wishful thinking or indeed a definite possibility, courtesy quite a few other assignments that he is currently engaged on, those close to Ekta Kapoor and Milan Luthria claim that the producer and the director are happily chanting the call of 'all is well'.

"Both are currently busy on wrapping up The Dirty Picture but as soon as the film's release is through, they would go heads down on kick-starting Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2. There is no need for anyone to panic because things are going entirely as per the plans", says a source close to the duo, "In fact as we talk, the final version of the film's script is being locked and a parallel hero (to Akshay) is being finalised. More than anyone else, Akshay is most excited about beginning work on the film. He is convinced that this is the one huge clutter-breaking film in his line-up."

The speculations around the arrival time period of Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2 began when the release timing for Akshay's another action entertainer Rowdy Rathore was announced last week. As the film would arrive in June while Akshay's other film Housefull 2 has been pre-poned to April next year, many wondered if it would be too much too soon for Akshay to bring yet another film in August 2012.
