Priyanka Chopra is Akshay’s favorite

Akshay and Priyanka`s first movie together was "Andaaz" in 2003. After that they gave hits like "Aitraaz" (2004), "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi" (2004) and "Waqt - The Race Against Time" (2005).

Now Akshay want to work with Priyanka Chopra again, "But will she do a film with me? The ball is in her court. I mostly do comedies. I think Priyanka hardly ever acts in comedies," Akshay told reporters.

"We`re all professionals here. And the two of us have done very successful films in the past. I`d love to work with Priyanka Chopra again. Mujhe koi aitraaz nahin hai (I don`t have any problem). But I`m only doing comedy films these days. I don`t know whether she wants to do a comedy film. Even Farah Khan`s `Tees Maar Khan` is a comedy," said Akshay.

Having decided he would do predominantly comedy roles, Akshay is now on the look-out for ways to make it interesting. "Even if it`s a comedy, it better be interesting. If I continue doing the same thing over and over again, I`d be asked to pack up sooner than I`d like."

Akshay had a ball doing his just released "Housefull" that also stars Arjun Rampal, Riteish Deshmukh, Lara Dutta, Deepika Padukone and Jiah Khan.

"Not just the three ladies, but also Riteish and Arjun. Riteish was great fun. Shooting was a playground with him around. He just cracks me up."

"We once put all the cutlery at the breakfast table in a hotel in Italy in Jiah Khan`s bag and told the waiter to check her bag. Jiah took it sportingly. Arjun too has great comic timing. Lara is such an elegant lady and yet she can be one of the boys when it comes to comedy."

Akshay Kumar and Akshaye Khanna

a classic case of mistaken identities for Bollywood action king Akshay Kumar was recently flooded with umpteen messages meant for Akshaye Khanna. With both actors sharing similar name, it was a big identity goof up and a huge surprise for actor Akshay Kumar.

while Akshay was shooting at Mehboob Studio for his upcoming flick ‘Patiala House,’ the actor was quite surprised as he was constantly receiving messages from an assistant that read, ‘Sir it is a 2 pm shift at Film City tomorrow’ and another one said, ‘Sir, what would you like to eat for lunch?’ The messages have been coming religiously, many times. However, I’m now wondering that if I’m getting all of Akshaye’s shooting alerts, how is he managing to reaching his shooting on time? And I don’t know how many of my messages are being delivered to him.”


At first, Akshay Kumar was a bit puzzled by the constant text messages until he found out that they were originally meant for Akshaye Khanna, who was shooting at Film City. News has it that both Akshay and Akshaye are starring in Anees Bazmee’s ‘Thank You’ and Farah Khan’s ‘Tees Maar Khan.’
