British model-actress Amy Jackson said that she was extremely surprised when she was offered Singh is Bling, and had to pinch herself to believe that she was going to star opposite Akshay Kumar.
“I got the call and didn’t expect it.
And right up till nearly the end of filming, I was thinking, ‘Am I actually doing a film with Akshay Kumar?’ because I was a massive Akshay Kumar fan before and the first film that I ever watched was his and Katrina’s film, Namastey London . I didn’t think that I could get the chance to star alongside him, especially so early on in my career,” said Amy, whose last Tamil film was Vikram-starrer I .
Amy added that Akshay has been the best co-star. “He’s the action king of Bollywood, and not just the way he is as an actor, but mainly the way he is as a person. I learnt a lot from him from the way he conducts himself professionally. I think he is an inspiration.”
