Jacqueline Fernandez Recalls ‘Inappropriate’ Moment

The conversation sparked when Akshay Kumar asked Jacqueline about her long tenure in the industry. "It's been 17 years in the industry for you-has anyone ever said anything inappropriate to you?" Akshay asked. To the audience's surprise, Jacqueline laughed and replied, "Yes, many!" before clarifying that one of the most memorable "inappropriate" moments was actually a prank played by Akshay himself.

Akshay Kumar’s Prank Scared Jacqueline on Set

Jacqueline recounted that during the shoot for Dhanno, she noticed an unusually high number of security personnel and bodyguards on set. Mistaking them for police officers, she casually questioned their presence. Seizing the opportunity, Akshay decided to play a dirty prank on the newcomer. “A few minutes later, Akshay came to me and said, 'Jacqueline, have you done something wrong? The police have come for you. After the shoot, they’ll take you to the station,'” she revealed. The actress confessed that the prank left her genuinely shaken throughout the filming of the iconic song. “I was so scared during the entire shoot; I couldn't figure out what I had done wrong.”

Akshay Kumar Apologises for Prank

Known for his mischievous nature on film sets, Akshay offered a playful apology during the show. “If I did something like that, then I’m sorry,” he said, before sharing a life lesson with the viewers. “People should keep doing a bit of fun and pranks, but only until no one gets hurt. If nobody gets hurt, the fun should continue.” ‘Wheel of Fortune India’: Akshay Kumar and Rajpal Yadav Recreate Iconic ‘Paani’ Scene From ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa’ (Watch Video)
