A buzz is doing the rounds that actor Akshay Kumar is upset with director Shirish Kunder. The reason being Akshay is not quite pleased with the way his upcoming film JOKER has shaped up.

Akshay reportedly saw the edited version of the film and was disappointed with final outcome. Apparently, the actor advised Shirish to make alterations in the film and wants it to get it released only after the changes are made. Probably, Akshay's next venture ROWDY RATHORE will now get released before JOKER.

JOKER, a fantasy adventure film, is a bunch of people who escape from mental asylum and reach a village and how an alien finds them. It will be the fourth Hindi film to be released in 2D as well as 3D format after HAUNTED 3D, RA.ONE and DON 2. Also starring Sonakshi Sinha, Minissha Lamba, Shreyas Talpade and Prakash Raj, JOKER was earlier scheduled for an August 2012 release.
