Akshay Kumar made a meal out of a skiing shot when he tried, and failed, before he finally succeeded carting Katrina around in the water.Action man Akshay Kumar has been failing at a water sport that Katrina has been excelling at.
Shooting for De Dhana Dhan in Singapore, the star says he was "given half an hour to practice" a scene where he was to water ski. "Surprise, surprise! Water skiing ain't that easy," the star writes in his blog. He thought at first that "it looks so graceful and easy and killer cool to do, you know, anyone could do it." So, Akshay "jumped on my board ready to fly off and even produce some somersaults off the ramps, but HELL, NO... I fell off this thing quicker than anyone could say 'Singh is Kinng'. It was more like Singh the belly flop king."
But the sporty actor wasn't embarrassed. "When my head came out of water, I had to force myself to stop laughing and get back on the board before Priyanji saw his hero’s face down and bum up in the water ;o)".
And then, of course, he triumphed. "So back up I go. Needless to say, it took a few more times than first expected to nail this thing, but by lunch, not only had I cracked it, I was carrying the incredibly beautiful and brave Katrina Kaif on my back whilst whizzing round on this thing like it was second nature." "And that’s when you know you’re a good actor, when you’re made to do something that technically scares the crap out of you, but you smile for the shot and make everyone think 'AHH, they’re so in love', then the minute you hit the water at mega speed, there’s no smile, just a battered body that’s praying for the shot to be OK'd."
He added that Kats "did extremely well" and that "not many heroines I know would have tried and succeeded" as her.
Other than praise Katrina, Akshay also had warm words for Hugh Jackman, whose movie X-Men Wolverine is just out. Akshay caught it in Singapore and said: "Amazing movie! Haven't seen that kind of cinema since Batman - The Dark Knight… Hugh Jackman is definitely one of the most multi-talented actors I've ever seen. Did you see him hosting the Oscars? I've never known a Hollywood actor apart from Will Smith that could sing/ dance/ joke/ be merry/ with the nut-cracking sarcasm of a gentleman. He really does deserve the Best Actor; I can't help, but respect him…"
