Twinkle Khanna and Akshay Kumar

Akshay Kumar rang in his 50th birthday on September 9 with family in the scenic vistas of Switzerland. Almost a week later, celebrations continue for the actor — this time around, on a set. Yesterday, Kumar was shooting for the TV show, The Great Indian Laughter Challenge at Yash Raj Studios, Andheri. We caught up with the star in his vanity van, which was adorned with pink balloons and strewn with gifts — Fendi, Louis Vuitton, you name it.

"It's not that I am telling everyone 'It's my birthday, let's celebrate'," he laughs before adding, "The channel and production folk have put up all this. This was their way of wishing me a belated birthday."
