Akshay Kumar Photos and Videos

Aishwarya Rai-Bachchan will be playing the role of an old lady in a few scenes in Vipul Shah’s upcoming release, Action Replay. The film is said to be a remake of the Hollywood hit, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett. The Bollywood version will star Akshay Kumar and Randhir Kapoor.

Well-known Hollywood make-up artist, Paul Pattison has been hard at work to give Ash a full makeover. He is known for styling Mel Gibson for Braveheart and Tom Cruise for Mission Impossible. Director, Vipul Shah says that Ash has to spend about 4-6 hours day for the make-up to be applied perfectly. “She was extremely co-operative. It’s a look people have never seen her in before.” he says.

The film has music composed by Pritam and is expected to be a family entertainer and not an action flick as the title implies.

Akshay Kumar who is now a super star of the tinsel world has worked with around all the big and small directors of Indian Cinema and now he is bending towards the west countries to try his hands.

According to the sources, the Hollywood director David Ellis, who has directed thrillers like “The Final Destination”, is really keen to work with the actor after having a close attention on his work in his latest flick ‘Blue’.

Recently, David came to see all the skill and work of the stunt man when the director Anthony D’Souza of the flick ‘Blue’ was busy in doing the final mixing of the footage at Los Angeles.

David loved the magnificent work by the actor and the director of ‘Blue’ quoted, “David was highly impressed when he saw some portions of Blue. He was of the opinion that such stunts could not be possible in movies outside Hollywood. He simply loved Akshay’s work and truly believes that Akshay has huge potential to make it big in the West.”

According to some other sources, the western director David has already portrayed the storyline of his film in which Akshay Kumar alias Akki will play in the lead role. The film will be a served to both Indian and international audiences on the silver screen.

It’s been a long time since the beautiful Katrina Kaif has been a lucky charm for sturdy actor Akshay Kumar.

In a recent interview with a leading daily Akki revealed that Katrina has been really lucky for him.

Akshay Kumar said, “Katrina and I have together given a number of hits and she has really been a boon to my Bollywood career. She is really talented and of course I have enjoyed every bit of working with her.”

It’s quite obvious that Katrina has been a boon for everyone she has worked with, may be it’s because of the lady’s love for her fans or her fans’ love for her.

The stunt man of Bollywood Akshay Kumar alias Akki is back with his stunning thriller flick “Blue” today on the floors of the theatres who is teaming up with the cameo performance of the Barbie Girl of Bollywood Katrina Kaif.

Since the pair of Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif have always proved their flick a blockbuster hit. Thus, they have decided to come again in another flick, a sequel of all time comedy Hera Pheri in Hera Pheri 4.

The producer Firoz Nadiadwala is again convinced to make the 4th sequel of Hera Pheri after the director Priyadarshan who made this comic flick “Hera Pheri” and later by Neeraj Vora for 2nd sequel “Phir Hera Pheri”.
Mumbai Mirror quoted a source: “Firozbhai saw the promos and immediately got in touch with Akshay for the much-awaited segment. Although Akshay’s shooting dates are packed, he came to Firoz’s rescue by accommodating the film.”

‘Blue’ directed by Anthony D’Souza can be called as the most awaited and the most expensive film of the year as it budgets over Rs 1 billion amount. The film has been constantly under media review because of its incredible stunt acts specially the one under water.

Akshay Kumar informs this movie to be the most dangerous movie till date if the stunts are to be concerned. He said that it was really difficult to carry those sequels under water as movie required some shots, where the actor was without the swim goggles and there were nearly 30-35 sharks all around.

Akki said, “Some may call it stupidity but I will call it a passion for making films.”

The Kambhakkt Ishq’s actor Akshay Kumar’s bold acting is inviting trouble for him. The censor board has asked the Khiladi actor Akshay Kumar to stop playing the ‘Khel’ of delivering unacceptable dialogues in his forthcoming movie Kambhakkt Ishq. Dialogues such as “Women are good for only two things, making love and making love” and “Marriage Ke Pehle Ladkiyan Sex object Hoti Hai and Marriage Ke Baad Mein They object to Sex” have created a huge cry amongst the audiences and the censor board has asked producer Sajid Nadiadwala to cut those scenes in order to get a U/A rating, or take an ‘A’ rating instead. To know what decision Sajid Nadiawala took…take a look!

Akshay Kumar has worked with both Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif in several films, but can’t decide who is better. The action king says both are “wonderful actresses” and have “sexy bodies”.

“Both Kareena and Katrina are really good but who is the better among them depends on their roles in the films. Otherwise, both of them have sexy bodies and are absolutely wonderful actresses,” said Akshay when asked to choose his favourite of the two.

Akshay has done four films with Katrina including Namastey London and Singh Is Kinng, while he has worked with Kareena in five that include hits Ajnabee and Aitraaz.

The two are set to scorch the screen once again in their upcoming action-cum-romantic drama Kambakkht Ishq, which releases on Friday.

Akshay Kumar seems to be quite defensive about his much awaited flick ‘Kambakkht Ishq’. While promoting the film recently, the actor grabbed the opportunity to clarify that the presence of Hollywood bigwigs in the film is certainly not for creating hype, but is the need of the script.

Akki says, “I play a stuntman from Hollywood in the film and presence of these actors was essential. They were the need of the story to take my character forward in the film.”

“Sharing space with Hollywood action star Sylvester Stallone in the film was the most memorable experience. He told me about his knee problems and how he overcame his fear with heights to act in the movie `Cliffhanger`,” Akshay added.

The man who appears to be very strong and powerful on-screen actually feels the opposite. Akshay Kumar respects women a lot and feels that they are the most strongest than men as they have the capacity to give birth to a new life. He adores his wife Twinkle for the same reason and also feels that she is the most talented women. He fell for Twinkle on looking at her qualities rather than her beauty.

Akshay gets candid and wrote down his feelings about his wife on his blog, “Twinkle is one of the most wonderful, talented and head strong women. Believe me, I am one man who respects women head over heels more than men.”

What Akki admires the most in women, “No man could ever go through what women go through. And after them putting us wonderful men here on this planet we dare to take their freedom of speech or belittle their gender! If I ever saw a man mistreat a woman, he’d wish he never woke up that morning…” he warns.

While most work in the film industry has come to a standstill because of the current standoff between producers and multiplex owners, Akshay Kumar is working harder than ever before. He has shot for two films: Priyadarshan’s De Dana Dan and Vipul Shah’s Action Replay back-to-back in April and May, and now, he proceeds to shoot for buddy Sajid Khan’s Housefull in July.

While many of his colleagues have taken off for holidays, Akshay has decided to work harder than before during this dry period.

“We all should get together to create a bank of work to be released in a tumble of films, once the releases begin. In fact, that’s what I’m doing.”

Akshay follows a Japanese philosophy on work ethics.

Asin has rejected to work with Bollywood’s Khiladi Akshay Kumar in his next flick ‘De Dana Dan’, the reason being clash of dates. However, Asin’s loss is Katrina Kaif’s gain as she has grabbed the role.

After ‘Ghajini’, Salman Khan-Ajay Devgan starrer ‘London Dreams’ and Priyadarshan’s comedy with Akshay Kumar ‘De dana Dan’ were the two biggies in her kitty. But Asin refused the latter offer as “There was date clash”.

Addressing a press meet, Asin said, ‘I could not do the role because of dates problem’.

However, according to the sources, the film is a three-heroine project, due to this reason Asin is not comfortable working in the movie.

Priyadarshan’s upcoming ‘De Dana Dan’ will be the fourth film where Akki and Katrina would be seen together.

Akshay Kumar is a loving husband, so what if he charges the poor producers 9 crores for a mere dubbing job even when the world economy is down in the dumps. Look what nice things he does with all the money. He pays heavy income tax to the Indian government and keeps his wife happy… Thats perhaps the greatest achievement for any Indian man – because these two things are literally impossible to achieve for many Indian men.

He decided to gift her a lavish Bentley Car worth 3 crore to his wifey dear on her birthday on 29th December. Apparently he spent so much for her because he was extremely proud of her and wanted to give her the best of everything because he owes his success to her.

Apparently he handed the car keys to his wife before he flew off to Hong Kong for Christmas Show. Twinkle was overwhelmed with joy we heard.
