Akshay Khiladi Kumar is known for his deadly stunts; however during one of the underwater sequences, the dare-devil actor survived a fatal mishap. A ship had to be blasted underwater; even though extreme care was taken the blast went a little out of control! It was a harrowing moment for the entire team, but luckily the cameraman used his presence of mind and got Sanju Baba, Akki and himself out of trouble quickly. Not one to be bogged down by such accidents, Akki is seen here back doing what he does best, shooting for an action packed car sequence.
Early this month (July) some of the biggest Bollywood stars were in the exotic locales of Bahamas. We are talking about Akshay Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, and Lara Dutta who were shooting for Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd’s multi-starrer Blue.
We at Bollywood Hungama bring you some rare on-the-sets stills.
Blue is an action packed thriller and some heavy duty action scenes were shot in the sun-clad beaches of Bahamas. Seen here having a good time is Akshay Kumar along with Mr. Craig Woods (Film Commissioner-Bahamas) and debutante director Anthony D’Souza. Akshay is seen sporting his by-now famous bearded look in this film.
The picturesque locales of Bahamas was zeroed in some months back (Nov 2007) by the makers of Blue- Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd. While a major portion of the film was filmed in the Nassau and Paradise Island in and around Bahamas, the remaining scenes will be shot in Thailand, Hong Kong and Mumbai. After a long hiatus, Akshay Kumar and Sanjay Dutt will be sharing screen space together in this film. Along with Lara Dutta, the film also stars Zayed Khan and Katrina Kaif in important roles. For most of the shoot, Sanjay Dutt had his wifey dearest, Manyata for company and the two of them surely must have had a good break away from home.
“The experience of shooting in the Bahamas was quite magnificent; it was heaven on earth,†says the oh-so-gorgeous Lara Dutta.
No one can deny the magnificence and scenic beauty that Bahamas has to offer. Shooting and scuba diving in the blue waters of Bahamas is no less than a dream come true. Lara, who actually suffers from hydrophobia, got rid of her fears and enjoyed the scuba diving experience. With the ‘Khatron Ka Khiladi’ Akshay Kumar by your side, fear is no longer a factor to worry about.
