*Akshay Kumar is 53 years old and Kareena Kapoor Khan is 39. You might think, well, Bollywood cinema is well over a century old, so there are not just veterans in the business, but generations of veterans. But I also think we're looking at a general demographic shift here; even though India has a very youthful population, there are a heck of a lot of old people in India, and a lot of them are paying to go into theaters instead of Netflixing and chilling.
*Also, the physical condition of these two middle-aged athletic dancers is amazing. They are both really into nutrition and gym-work, and doing a better job of that than anyone in Indian cinema ever has before.
