When Katrina kaif hit Akshay Kumar hardNew Delhi, Dec 22 (IANS) Many feel Katrina Kaif is a delicate darling, but her "Tees Maar Khan" co-star Akshay Kumar doesn't think so.

"We were shooting for the song 'Bade dilwala' and Katrina got so involved in her dance that she actually hit me hard with her elbow. The impact was such that the shooting had to be stalled for two hours," Akshay told reporters here Wednesday.

The actor revealed this during the promotional tour of "Tees Maar Khan" in the capital. He was here with Katrina and director Farah Khan for the film that releases Friday.

Both the stars were greeted with much fanfare. They put their best foot forwad and wowed fans with an impromptu yet sizzling performance of the hit item number "Shiela ki jawani" from the romantic comedy.

"When we shoot for any song, there are often many cuts but I enjoy performing in front of live audiences because the response makes me feel good," Akshay said after his performance.

These days, Katrina is often heard talking in Hindi and she happily obliged when her fans asked her to do so at the event.

Akshay and Katrina also fulfilled the demand of their younger fans by happily dancing with them to the tune of "Bade dilwala".

Not only that, when Akshay spotted a little girl crying in the crowd as she couldn't reach the stage, he immediately called her and cheered her up by dancing along with her and giving a peck on her cheek.

Saif Ali Khan credits Amitabh Bachchan for his Bollywood forayMumbai, Dec 22 (IANS) Even though Saif Ali Khan is veteran actress Sharmila Tagore's son, the actor says he joined the Indian film industry chiefly because of Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

The 40-year-old actor is all set to work with Amitabh in Prakash Jha's next "Aarakshan". This is the second time that both the actors will share screen space after the 2007 film "Eklavya: The Royal Guard"

"I joined films pretty much because of Amitji so it's always an absolute honour to work with him and I'm glad I got another opportunity to get associated with him," Saif told reporters here.

Big B too was elated to know about Saif's thoughts and revealed that he felt honoured after hearing what Saif had to say.

"I have worked with Saif in 'Eklavya', that was my first association with him. I am really honoured and privileged to know that he feels that I was in someway responsible for his entry into this film industry. I'm delighted to work with him again," said the 68-year-old star.

Amitabh also remembered some of the moments that he spent with Saif.

"Today, I remember one of the very old moments. Saif was six-seven years old and he had visited my sets when I was shooting a song in Filmcity. Sharmila ji, his mother, said that he wanted to be with me and see the shooting.

"He was a very confused looking youngster then, who stood at the top of the hill, sitting on a rock all by himself and watching the shooting. From then on I have watched him grow so brilliantly to a fine actor with a lot of variety in every performance," revealed the actor.

"Aarakshan" also stars Deepika Padukone, Prateik and Manoj Bajpayee and will go on floor Jan 15. It is based on policies of caste based reservations in government jobs and educational institutions.

Amitabh Bachchan says Smita Patil had premonition about my 'Coolie' accidentMumbai, Dec 22 (IANS) Almost three decades after his near fatal injury during the filming of a fight scene for the film "Coolie", Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan Wednesday revealed that actress Smita Patil had a premonition about the accident a day before it took place.



"Smita was a unique lady and she had a premonition about my accident," Amitabh told reporters here.

"I was shooting for 'Coolie' in Bangalore in 1982. One night at about 1 a.m. I got a call from Smita. She said, 'I'm sorry to disturb you Amit-ji, but are you okay?'. I said yes I'm fine. Then she said, 'I had a really bad dream and I just wanted to find out if you were okay'. Next morning, I had that accident on the sets of 'Coolie'. It was just unbelievable," Amitabh said.

"Then, throughout my two-three months in the hospital, she was a regular visitor and even when I came back home, she used to come every evening to enquire if I was doing well. I can never forget that," he added.

The 68-year-old walked down memory lane and remembered the incident while talking about Smita's son Prateik, who will be working with the actor in Prakash Jha's forthcoming film "Aarakshan".

Amitabh said that working with Prateik will be an emotional experience for him.

"This film is going to be my first association with Prateik. Whenever I see him, I think about his mother. The resemblance, the attitude, is very much like her. I'm afraid that it's going to be a little emotional for me working with him because Smita was a very dear friend," he said.

The film, slated to go on floor Jan 15, also stars Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Manoj Bajpayee. It is based on caste-based reservations in government jobs and educational institutions. It will be shot in Bhopal and the makers are looking for an Aug 12, 2011 release.
