Wednesday, 17th Feb 2016, 3:17 PM IST Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Airlift’ has proved to be a super hit at the box-office. And now, after around four weeks of its release, the film has been given a tax free status in Bihar. A source said, "It is not about the monetary gains that the film would gain from this point on but the fact that good cinema has been appreciated. This will go down in records that a film with such a theme and treatment was acknowledged for its class and entertainment quotient, and hence was declared Tax Free. For director Raja Menon and the production team of Bhushan Kumar, Vikram Malhotra and Nikkhil Advani, this is a moment of high indeed." An industry veteran said, "No one other than Akshay Kumar would understand this better. 17 years back, his ‘Jaanwar’ (1999) had done blockbuster business in Bihar. That was a true-blue 'masala' commercial flick. Today, the same actor's offbeat film ‘Airlift’ turns out to be his second highest grosser ever (after ‘Rowdy Rathore’) and gets a Tax Free status in U.P. and Bihar - two of the biggest commercial territories of the country. If that doesn't reflect the kind of career progression that Akshay has made, what else does that?"
