Akshay Kumar talks about shooting for Bachchhan Paandey with a 'very big lens', says 'would see everything blurry'

Akshay Kumar and Kriti Sanon's Bachchhan Paandey is entertaining the audience in theatres currently. Loaded with drama, comedy and action, the Farhad Samji-directorial is an out-and-out massy affair. For the film, Akshay went the extra mile to make sure the look of his character is perfect. He plays a gangster with a 'stone eye' in Bachchhan Paandey and to get that look, the superstar wore a lens. 

Talking about the challenge to get his stone eye look right, Akshay told the media, "Wearing the lens and then removing it was extremely difficult. Jaan nikal jaati thi because I could not fix it in my eye myself. It was a very big lens. I would see everything blurry and that’s how I used to shoot. I would just see that there is a figure in front of me."

He further added, "The first day it took about 15 minutes, but later it used to take me hardly 2-3 minutes. We decided on my look by doing a lot of photoshoots for three days and that’s when we zeroed in on this one."

Directed by Farhad Samji, Bachchhan Paandey, a Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment and also starring Arshad Warsi, Pankaj Tripathi, Sanjay Mishra, Abhimanyu Singh and Jacqueline Fernandez, is currently running in theatres globally.
