New Delhi, April 1 (Inditop.com) Bollywood star Akshay Kumar has a secret hobby of collecting posters of old Bollywood movies and actors and his fans will get to see his collection in a scene in his forthcoming movie ‘Action Replayy’.
‘Akshay has been collecting these posters for years and has built himself a sizeable collection,’ said a source close to the actor.
In ‘Action Replayy’, Akshay plays a coffee house owner and when the set was being planned, director Vipul Shah mentioned that he wanted it to be a Bollywood themed cafe.
While the crew searched for suitable posters in the market, they managed only a few cheesy ones. That’s when Akshay came to their rescue.
‘Yes, it’s true that I have lent some posters to Vipul because for the longest time, they couldn’t source original ones,’ said Akshay.
Shah said: ‘We were not getting good posters and the problem kept cropping up in production meetings. We had absolutely no clue that Akshay had such a collection. It was a pleasant surprise.’
‘Action Replayy’ also features Aishwarya Rai.
