Kylie Minogue in love with Bollywood and Akshay

Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue accepted the film Blue because she could meet Bollywood Action King Akshay Kumar . The day she saw Chandni Chowk to China, she became a great fan of Akshay Kumar. Kylie also wanted to go through the whole Indian experience, including a wedding and of course the Taj Mahal and Jaipur - Rajashthan route. Apart from being a huge Akshay Kumar fan, Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue is a complete Bollywood buff and in love with Indian sarees.

Kylie Minogue earns $1 million for one song!

The Australian singing sensation shot for eight days in Mumbai for the film Blue and went home with a neat $1 million. That makes Kylie Minogue the most expensive star to make an appearance in a Hindi film. She shot for a video and director Anthony D’Souza said, “There is more to her role than is apparent.” Apart from the fat pay cheque, Kylie loved the enthusiasm in B’wood. “I think the experience has been intense," she said at a recent press conference in Mumbai. "Many things I have done before, particularly making music videos, but in Bollywood, with that many people in a studio and the pace at which they work ... it was a totally new experience. The fact that I have been invited to come and take part in a Bollywood movie surely must be saying something about the feeling [for me] in the industry."

Kylie Minogue rejects Shahrukh Khan!

While shooting in India for Blue with Akshay Kumar, Kylie laid down her conditions firm and strong. She made it clear in her contract that no one would be allowed to enter the studio while she was at work. The whole studio was thus transformed into a fortress, so much so, that even Anusha Dandekar, who entered the studio with Zayed (the latter was filming with Kylie) was denied entry. Shahrukh Khan heard that one of Kylie’s favourite films was Om Shanti Om, so he had his office call her manager to set up an appointment! Kylie, however, refused to take out time especially for him and had her people tell his people that she could only meet him at the party that concluded the shoot. The party took place Friday night but apparently Shahrukh Khan never showed up. What Kylie doesn't know (and hopefully will never find out) is that hell hath no fury like SRK scorned!

Australian Singer Kylie Minogue a big fan of Akshay Kumar

Australian singer Kylie Minogue signed up for Hindi film "Blue" not just to get a taste of India and Bollywood but also because she is apparently a huge fan of action star Akshay Kumar. "It started when Kylie watched 'Chandni Chowk To China'. She was completely hooked to Akshay's antics. In fact one of her main incentives for accepting 'Blue' was the opportunity to meet up with Akshay. When she decided to do the film and the date for her arrival was confirmed, she made discreet inquiries about Akshay's schedules and his availability," said a source close to the film. Apart from shaking a leg for director Anthony D'Souza's "Blue", she's also fallen in love with all things Indian and has even draped a sari for a part of a song. "She wanted to go through the full India experience, including the khaana (food), wedding and of course the Taj Mahal and Jaipur," the source added. D'Souza too said that the inter

Akshay Kumar invites Australian popstar Kylie Minogue on lunch

Australian popstar Kylie Minogue is in India to perform for a song in Akshay Kumar starrer and Anthony D’SOuza’s flick Blue. As soon as Kylie’s feet touched the Indian ground, the talented singer was invited for a lunch at Akshay Kumar’s home. A source reveals, “Kylie and some of Akshay-Twinkle Khanna’s close friends from the industry plus the Blue crew are invited for lunch by the actor on Thursday afternoon. This is supposed to be his way of making her comfortable in Mumbai. If Hrithik and Sussanne Roshan went all out to make Barbara Mori comfortable in Mumbai why not Akshay and his wife?” And to add to the affair the lunch was recorded live since the producers of the movie wanted it to be a public affair.
