MUMBAI: Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who currently hosts the reality game show ‘Wheel of Fortune India’, has shared the core idea behind Mumbai Clean League.

The actor shared that the league drew its core idea from the Indian Premier League. It blends the elements of a highly commercial sports and entertainment league with the civic responsibilities.

The actor said, “As we see IPL, Indian Premier League, an idea came to my mind from there, so I told Amit Satham ji and sir that why not make a Mumbai Clean League, in which everyone will participate, because our city, Mumbai, every person, I mean, you all know that approximately 250 million people live here, and everyone wants a good life. The place is small, Mumbai is small, but there is a lot of energy here, and it is a financial place of our country also”.
