Today at the trailer launch event of Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Kiara Advani and Diljit Dosanjh starrer Good Newwz, producer Karan Johar was all praise for superstar Akshay Kumar. With this film, Karan Johar's Dharma Production is all set to launch the 16th debut director under his production banner. Talking about which Karan said, "Akshay is one actor who has always supported first time directors and it's his 23rd debut director to work with".

Karan further praising Akshay said, "He has a special quality of searching for content and doesn't look into the scale of the film or the director... and that is very rare for a movie star and mega movie star in Bollywood. He is the only superstar in India to work with so many debut director and never has never asked for who is director when you take a film to him, I think he trusts the vibe."

Akshay talking about the same said "Directors have played a big roles in shaping my career, I think writers are the most important people. I think writers are bigger than directors; and even the actors have nothing to do without them. No matter how big a star is they have nothing to do without writers, if the writing and story is not right it will not work out. Thus I feel they have a huge contribution in a film."

This comedy of errors based on goof-up of sperm exchange, has been directed by by debut director Raj Mehta and co- produced by Dharma Productions, Akshay Kumar's Cape Good Films & debut producer Shashank Khaitan.
