Akshay Kumar was recently in Singapore shooting with the entire unit of De Dana Dan. Akshay managed to do what the entire unit couldn’t.

No we aren’t talking about a stunt, Akshay wanted to watch the IPL matches in his hotel room. But he realised that the hotel, where the unit has been put-up, did not get the channel. The first thing he did was to tell the management to tune in to Set Max or else… he threatened to leave the hotel and check in somewhere else.

Ratan Jain, producer of the film confirmed the story and said, “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 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 added, “I guess, apart from us Indians, no one was interested in the Indian Premier League. 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.”
