Akshay Kumar dodges a bullet on Koffee with Karan

Superstar Akshay Kumar will make his first appearance on chat show Koffee with Karan on Sunday, 26th January. The TV host and renowned filmmaker Karan Johar, who has previously quizzed Bollywood stars such as Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, was definitely in for a surprise when Akshay turned the tables around on him and put him in the hot seat.

The episode was full of tantalising revelations and interesting tidbits of information about the superstar’s life, as Akshay and Karan played a verbal game of cat-and-mouse. Akshay, who reportedly previously refrained from appearing on the show due to concerns that he isn’t exciting enough, made the show as enjoyable for Karan as it was for the viewers after giving him some scintillating answers.

Viewers were said to have been ecstatic, as the episode aired in India on the 19th of January especially after Akshay’s comment on Twitter “Not a coffee drinker but here I am on the sets of Koffee with Karan, with Karan trying his best to make it a steaming one,” already proving contentious.

Although Akshay’s wife Twinkle did not join her beau on the famous sofa, viewers were not going to miss the chance of seeing their hero being quizzed.

Akshay looked suave and sported a styled unkempt look on the show. ‘Akki’ immediately expressed his ‘dislike’ for the format of the show and teased Karan throughout. It was indeed a rare delight to have Akshay appear on the show, as the normally shy star does not regularly appear live on shows apart from during his film promotions

The show will air for UK viewers on Sunday, 26th January 2014, on Star Plus UK at 7pm
