Television actor Sudhanshu Pandey, known for his role in Anupamaa, recently shared a funny story involving Akshay Kumar. While speaking with Bollywood Bubble, he recalled how Akshay once played a clever prank on him during the filming of Khiladi 420.

According to Sudhanshu, the incident happened during a lunch break. “He’s a prankster—he pranked me once a long time ago. I still remember, I was having lunch and sitting at the dining table when I got a call. There was some girl on the line, and she started saying things that made me a little worried and a little perplexed—like, kaun hai yeh ladki jo mujhse aisi baatein kar rahi hai?”

Suddenly, Akshay took the phone and burst into laughter. “Fatt gayi na? Fatt gayi na?” he said while laughing.

However, in a conversation with the Indian Express, he cleared the air. “The equation with Rupali is all okay. I was chatting with her recently. She messaged me about something on Instagram, and we were bickering about it. So it is all fine,” he said.

He added that they shared a great working relationship for four years.
