Akshay Kumar was reportedly injured in a melee as he made his way out of a club Saturday night after doing the honors as deejay to plug his upcoming film Action Replayy.
Akshay sustained minor injuries on his arms, legs and back as he, his co-star Aditya Roy Kapoor, and director Vipul Shah made their way out through an irate mob of fans who had been denied entry into the club.
Luckily, Akshay's leading lady in the film, Aishwarya Rai, wasn't with him as planned.
The two were scheduled to play their favorite songs from the 1970s to promote their film, an ode to the era. However, Aishwarya dropped out and Akshay went ahead with the planned promotion alone.
Fans began to gather at the club as news spread that Akshay was there. The star had planned to stay for just 20 minutes but stayed much longer, which turned out to be a mistake since fans kept pouring in.
The small club was soon filled to capacity and the staff locked the doors, which infuriated the young fans. They started to pelt stones, shattering glass and breaking furniture.
Akshay and his party made their way out through a back door where there was a smaller crowd.
Askhay seems to have taken the incident in his stride. The news wasn't immediately reported because Akshay told his party not to talk about it.
"Achcha nahin lagta. They were well-meaning fans," Bollywood Hungama quotes him as saying.
"Hota hai. It was good fun. I got to play my favorite John Travolta track," Akshay added.
