Akshay Kumar’s ironclad punctuality has become the stuff of Bollywood legend, now turning into comedic nightmares for Bollywood Wives. On the sets of ‘Wheel of Fortune India’, Bhavna Pandey and Neelam Kothari opened up about the sleepless nights and surprise visits courtesy of the ever-on-time superstar.
The episode promises unfiltered fun as these ladies dissect Akshay’s superpower. Bhavna Pandey, ever the witty storyteller, introduced the concept of ‘Akshay Kumar Time’ (AKT) versus the infamous Indian Standard Time (IST). During one shoot, her early morning slot turned into an all-nighter of anticipation. ‘I dashed out at ungodly hours to arrive first, but Akshay was already there, cool as ever,’ she shared, admitting the anxiety robbed her of sleep.
This level of dedication from Akshay, famous for blockbusters and fitness, sets an intimidating precedent. Bhavna’s failed attempt to impress him highlights how his standards push others to their limits, blending admiration with nerves.
Neelam Kothari’s tale added another layer of hilarity. ‘Picture this: 9 AM, my jewelry store door opens, and in walks Akshay. Me? Still sipping coffee at home!’ She rushed over, flustered, and teased him about early bird jewelry runs. The story captures Akshay’s spontaneous reliability that disrupts the norm.
Streaming on Sony LIV and broadcast on Sony Entertainment Television, the show offers a refreshing glimpse into celebrity life. Akshay’s punctuality saga reinforces his status as Bollywood’s discipline icon, leaving wives and co-stars racing against his clock.
