Akshay threatens to leave hotel for IPL


Akshay Kumar is a cricket enthusiast, and with no Set Max in his hotel room in Singapore, where he is shooting for Dan Dana Dan, Akki threatened to leave the hotel, if he couldn’t get to see IPL matches.
Producer, Ratan Jain says, “When Akshay came here last week, he asked me if we are watching the matches. When I told him that it was getting very difficult to catch-up with IPL matches because the hotel did not have that channel, he spoke to the owner and told him that if he didn’t get the matches, he won’t stay in the hotel. Within minutes the channel started beaming in the hotel.”
Jain adds, “I guess, apart from us Indians, no one was interested in the IPL. The hotel also must have paid a huge amount to subscribe to the channel; but Akshay is happy and now the entire unit can watch the matches together during breaks.”
