As I write this, my neck is in pain - never has it been so stiff! - from standing close to an hour in the cold, with my mother, for an opportunity to meet
Akshay Kumar...and a glimpse is all we got. We're quite disappointed, seeing as we could have been in better places...like the warmth of our house. My mother was quite excited and so was I, considering I've followed his career since my childhood - he was quite big in the early 90's, then disappeared for a
really long time (details of which, I won't go into) before making his successful comeback in recent years. Akshay Kumar is a pretty big Bollywood actor and I have harboured a tiny crush on him since I was about 12(?) - I also think he could be
Scott Bakula's Indian cousin or something, the two
do look alike and I happen to have had a tiny crush on him too for about the same length of time.
Akshay Kumar (left) and Scott Bakula (right)...not that you needed me to point it out...
Not the best pictures I could find, but there is a resemblance...
