Anees Bazmee, renowned for directing popular Hindi films like Singh Is Kinng, No Entry, Welcome, and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, has collaborated with major stars such as Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor, and Ajay Devgn over his illustrious career. In a recent interview, Bazmee shared insights about working with Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar. He highlighted the stark contrast between the two actors, noting that while Salman is known for his easy-going attitude, Akshay is famed for his punctuality. This difference, Bazmee explained, makes working with each actor a distinctly unique experience.

Anees Bazmee opens up about working with Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan; says, “Akshay is a very punctual man, Salman will show up at around 1 pm”

“Akshay is a very punctual man. We are always worried when working with him because if he says that we’ll start working at 7 am, then he will be there at 7 am. And we are not used to waking up at 6-7 am. So, we have to work hard when working with him. But we really enjoy that he comes on time, and he finishes up all the work,” Anees shared with Lehren Retro. Akshay has previously stated in numerous interviews that he enjoys starting his day at the crack of dawn so that he can finish early.

Anees also discussed working with Salman, stating that the actor prefers to start his day later, which suits Anees. “Sometimes, we are too relaxed with Salman bhai because he will show up at around 1 pm, will have lunch but then he will stay until the end of the day. I have trained under Raj Kapoor where we would work all night long, so I really like it when the day starts at 2 pm.”

Anees stated that despite their contrasting routines, he appreciates both actors equally. “But every actor is different, so we have to start according to them. And once in a while, when you change your routine and work, it’s really enjoyable. I have equal fun working with Akshay and Salman,” he said.

Anees has appeared alongside Salman Khan in films such as No Entry and Ready. He has also worked with Akshay Kumar on the films Welcome, Singh Is Kinng, and Thank You.
