Not only have they co-starred in three films (Andaaz, Blue and Housefull) so far, Akki and Lara are also good friends off-screen. A source close to AK reveals,  “He was Lara’s first hero and they have shared a great camaraderie since. He feels that if he can do something to help a film then he will go all out.
He has already told her that he would come down to Jaipur and shoot with them for two days. He’s doing this as a gesture of his friendship with her.” The source adds that the action star has waived off his remuneration for the film as well. “He has told Dutta he’d do the cameo for free. When it comes to friends, Akshay doesn’t talk money. In fact he doesn’t even know what his role is. Usually he’s very particular about that. He hasn’t even discussed his role with her as there is genuine trust between the two.”
