A source informs that the actor's character will create intrigue. "Akshay plays a gut-wrenching character. The makers envisioned a menacing look [to go with the personality], which will be the highlight of his role." However, this is not his first attempt at a grey-shaded character. Oberoi was last seen in the negative space in Gurgaon (2017). He says, "[My role in Flesh] is totally badass."

Emphasising that his role is tad different from that in Gurgaon, the actor says, "My character in Flesh is different from what I have done in the past. I played a grey character in Gurgaon, but this one is terrifying and dark."

The actor will next be seen in Ekta Kapoor's KTina opposite Disha Patani, then in the Hindi remake of Thiruttu Payalaye 2 and an MXPlayer series titled, Magic.
