Paras Mhambrey Trains Akshay Kumar for Patiala House
Akshay Kumar is taking his ace-bowler’s role in a forthcoming film Patiala House dead seriously. Ever since he returned from his back-therapy in Germany, Akshay has been training rigorously under former test cricketer Paras Mhambrey. Currently working with the team members of the IPL’s Mumbai Indians, Mhambrey has been taking time off to coach Akshay whenever possible.
Akshay wants to continue training steadily and regularly so that his bowling skills are super-sharpened by the time he starts shooting.
The Patiala House director Nikhil Advani says, “Akshay has been training diligently and religiously. His coach Paras Mhambrey even joined him at Malshej Ghat for Farah’s film. Because right after that our cricket sequences start in London.”
Advani’s British sports co-ordinator Robert Miller who co-ordinated the hockey and cricket scenes in Chak De! India and Dil Bole Hadippa, respectively, is down in Mumbai right now finalizing the list of international cricketers who will play with Akshay Kumar in Patiala House.
Explains Advani, “We’re looking at international cricketers from all over the world, England, South Africa, Australia, Bangladesh. The fact that the IPL matches are on makes our job easier because Robert can meet and negotiate with a lot of international cricketers while they are here.”
The film also requires county-level and regional cricketers whom Miller will finalize once the big-name cricketers are finalized.
Apparently, so bowled over is Akshay by his coach Paras Mhambrey that he now intends to request the former test cricketer to train his son Aarav as well.
