Akshay Kumar came on a blink-and-you-miss-it, entirely unplanned visit to the city on Thursday. The Bollywood actor, who has been shooting for the film "Joker" with Sonakshi Sinha in Chandigarh last week, stopped over at the Amausi Airport in Lucknow on his way to Bangladesh.
According to a source at the airport, the Khiladi had to take a break from the shooting as he was supposed to be in Dhaka for a show. Apparently, he was also scheduled to watch the match between Bangladesh vs Ireland on Friday in the ongoing Cricket World Cup.
"Yes, Akshay Kumar's chartered plane had landed at the Lucknow airport en route to Dhaka," confirms Nitin Kadyan, airport manager at Amausi.
Akki boarded a chartered flight from Chandigarh on Thursday evening. "But due to some technical reasons – the plane had to refuel here, Akki's flight had to make a stop-over in Lucknow for about two hours in the evening," says the source. The flight landed some time after 4pm and took off at about 6pm.
"At the airport Akshay had a few cups of tea while waiting to board the flight. Of course, the moment people around realised that they had a Bollywood actor amidst them, a crowd began to gather around him. He signed autographs and posed for pictures," added the source.
