Why is Shahid Kapoor insecure about Akshay Kumar?

Shahid Kapoor is all set to play Chhota Rajan in Milan Luthria's ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2’. But there’s something that is making Shahid very apprehensive nowadays. Guess, what it is?

There’s a buzz in B-town that Shahid is really very anxious about sharing screen space with none other than Akshay Kumar in ‘Once Upon A Time in Mumbaai 2’. According to sources, in 2005, Akshay and Shahid did a movie titled, ‘Deewane Huye Paagal’. It turned out to be a terrible experience for Shahid as many of his scenes were removed from the movie. In spite of having two stars in the lead, the movie turned out to be a single star movie in the end.

That’s when Shahid decided that no matter what happens, he will only do single-hero movies. Till now, Shahid has stuck to his decision as all his movies be it, ‘Vivaah’, ‘Jab We Met’, ‘Kaminey’ or ‘Mausam’, all of them have been single star movies. 

Now, that Shahid has been approached to do ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2’, Shahid has become really insecure about his role. Even though, he is quite sure that Milan Luthria will do justice to his presence in the movie, Shahid is unsure whether Akshay will again take the full credit away from him just like ‘Deewane Huye Paagal’.

Shahid is still thinking whether he should say yes for the role or not, keeping in mind, his solo stance. Let’s see what happens next… 

Akshay Kumar meets his childhood friend

Akshay Kumar meets his childhood friend

“I believe the first test of a truly great man is humility”, has said John Ruskin and when our very own ‘Khatron Ka Khiladi’, Akshay Kumar, met up with his childhood friend, he passed this test with flying colors.

At a recent event to launch a magazine with Akshay & his wife Twinkle on the cover, Akshay Kumar was pleasantly surprised to be presented with a childhood photograph of himself by his friend and his joy knew no bounds as he walked down the memory lane. “I am very happy to see my friend and I am also glad to see this photograph of my school. I can’t tell you how excited and surprised I am about it,” stated Akshay modestly.

Akshay’s unassuming nature is a known fact and his friend not only confirmed that but also revealed how naughty and fun-loving Akshay was as a kid and still is. Talking about their childhood moments, his friend said, “Rajeev (Akshay Kumar’s original name) was very naughty. I remember, once our teacher and principal called up his father to meet them, even at that time he was smiling as if nothing had happened.”

Humble and mischievous – now that’s a package only ‘Khiladi Kumar’ can portray at his best.
