How are the characters different....
At a global press conference of 'Accountant 2' attended by ETimes, Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal discussed about how their roles are different from previous blockbuster franchises like 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' and 'The Punisher,' respectively.
Ben stated, 'To me, what makes the action in 'The Accountant 2' so unique is that it's always rooted in character motivation. It's not about creating a shot that looks cool or building a sequence for visual flair. Everything is driven by what these characters want and why they are fighting in the first place.'
Jon Bernthal continued, 'You can't lie in a fight - you just can't. What you want is right there, so if you are going for it, you have got to know why. Gavin has a hunger to really dive into what makes these characters tick. For Brax, the emotional baggage from their childhood and their father's influence is always there. The violence isn't just for show - it's way to express love and loyalty.'

They were accompanied by Aayush Sharma and his son Ahil, along with Sohail Khan and his son Yohan.

As the couple exited the restaurant, they posed briefly for paparazzi. However, Arbaaz was later heard requesting privacy, saying, 'Samjha karo, aap bhi jaane do na?' The remark came after photographers asked Sshura to pose from the side, which could have revealed her baby bump more prominently. Dressed in a loose-fitting outfit, Sshura attempted to keep a low profile during the outing. However, she was previously seen in a more form-fitting dress, where her baby bump was clearly visible. This will be Arbaaz Khan's second child. He shares his first son, Arhaan Khan, with ex-wife Malaika Arora. The former couple parted ways in 2017 after 19 years of marriage but continue to co-parent their son.

' Though he did not delve further into the controversy, Kamal expressed gratitude for the support from several politicians, film personalities, activists and authors for his remarks on Kannada. Municipal administration minister K N Nehru too extended support to Kamal saying that south Indian languages originated from Tamil. Even after the Karnataka high court rapped Kamal, the actor remained defiant and refused to apologise stating that 'love does not apologise.' Though the movie is releasing worldwide on June 5, Kamal has chosen not to release it in Karnataka where political outfits as well as the film industry demanded an apology from him for the remark.
