They say, nothing comes for free, at least not in Bollywood for that matter. The Laxmmi Bomb team, in their effort to widen their target audience have offered transgender activist a lump sum amount of money to become a part of their team. The trio- Akshay Kumar, Kiara Advani and Laxmi Narayan Tripathi graced the Kapil Sharma Show. Akshay even took to Twitter to share a picture of the trio striking a cute pose together. He captioned it as,”Three’s not always a crowd! Team #LaxmmiBomb with the real Laxmi on sets of #TheKapilSharmaShow today!
@advani_kiara @ImLaxmiNarayan @KapilSharmaK9 ”

Laxmi Narayan Tripathi is a Transgender Rights Activist and a Bharatnatyam dancer in Mumbai. This woman is the first transgender rights activist to have represented the Asia Pacific in UN. Laxmi has also been a part of the eleventh season of Bigg Boss.
In the trailer of Laxmmi Bomb, Akshay plays the role of a transgender ghost who “lives life queen size”. Apparently, Khiladi Kumar is the only major actor to not only have played the part of a transgender on the big screen but has also opened the doors for the third gender as their target audience. As per reports claimed by SpotboyE a source close to the team said,”Laxmiji was roped in on Akshay Kumar’s behest. She is quite kicked by the idea of a Bollywood superstar playing a transgender.”
Laxmi Narayan Tripathi had earlier taken to Twitter to applaud Akshay Kumar and his team for the trailer launch of Laxmmi Bomb.
