Fans of the Khiladi actor will surely be excited to see him on the judges' panel. Besides delivering power-packed stunts, Akshay is also known for his comic timing in films.

There are reports that his alleged ex-girlfriend and former co-star Raveena Tandon will also co-judge the comedy show with him. The Great Indian Laughter Challenge will be aired on Star Plus channel.

While this will be Akshay's first time as a judge, he had earlier hosted two seasons of Khatron Ke Khiladi (2008 and 2009) and the dance reality show, Dare 2 Dance (2014).

Meanwhile, the actor is gearing up for the release of his next Toilet: Ek Prem Katha during the Independence Day weekend and has recently completed the shoot for Padman, which is based on Arunachalam Muruganantham, a small town entrepreneur from Tamil Nadu, who invented cost-effective sanitary napkins to generate awareness in rural areas.

The actor has now started filming for Reema Kagti's Gold, which is the story of India's first Olympic medal win as a free nation in 1948 at the 14th Olympiad in London.
