Of late, Akshay Kumar has been receiving messages meant for Akshaye Khanna. Guess having a namesake is not always fun. Akshay kept getting messages from an assistant named Nikki all of
last week, when he was shooting at Mehboob Studios for Patiala House.
Some of the messages were to inform Akshaye of his shoots and timings
while the others asked him what he wanted for lunch.
At first Akshay didn’t realize that the messages were for Akshaye
Khanna. But he later realized that the assistant had his number saved
against Akshaye’s name. And since the messages have come to him so
frequently, he wonders how Akshaye managed to reach his shooting on
time. He also wonders how many of his messages might have reached
Akshaye. Interestingly, Akshay and Akshaye are co-stars in Farah Khan’s
Tees Maar Khan and Anees Bazmee’s Thank You.
This isn’t the first time Bollywood has had namesake trouble.
Director Feroz Abbas Khan and actor Feroz Khan, director Sanjay Gupta
and the cinematographer by the same name and jewellery designer Farah
Khan Ali and director Farah Khan are among the many people who have
been in the same boat.
