Sonam Kapoor is grateful to have a tall co-star in Akshay Kumar. As the two work together on the sets of Thank You, she says he is the most hardworking actor she has ever met.
"I travel with my four companions all the time. Akshay just grins each time he sees them. I've never met anyone as hardworking as Akshay. He's ready before everyone else and reshearses each scene 50 times. And his comic timing is so hard to match."
Luckily Sonam had done comedy, read Aisha, before joining Akshay in Thank You.
"My comedy in Aisha is very Lucille Ball, very Goldie Hawn. But in Thank You, I needed to drop all my inhibitions. I remember me and my girls had seen Houseful and I asked one of my group, Tanya, to go to Akshay on the sets and do that scene where Arjun Rampal points to his eyes to say he was watching Akshay.
"When Tanya did that gesture, Akshay spontaneously did it back. He's such a sport and so cute. He has a great sense of humour and he knows so much on every topic."

Sonam had the unit of Thank You on hold in Toronto. They heaved a sigh of relief when she joined them.
Director Anees Bazmi being a family friend, she had asked for time to promote her film Aisha in India. This Bazmi happily granted even as Akshay Kumar grinned and bore the brunt of her absence. He did solo shots and a solo song as everyone waited for Sonam to join the unit.
Says Sonam: "I get along all with my co-stars because I don't get involved with them. Bobby Deol is so shy. His cousin Abhay is just the opposite. Abhay and Bobby are complete opposites. Me and Bobby love clothes and shopping."
She admits she isn't in touch with her first co-star Ranbir Kapoor any longer. "We've both been working too hard. We aren't that much in touch. I'd love to work with him again."
