Only
Akshay
Kumar
could
have
pulled
off
this
stunt!
While
shooting
for
Singh
Is
Kinng
on
the
Gold
Coast
in
Australia,
superstar
Akshay
Kumar
climbed
up
and
down
the
78
floors
building
where
the
team
was
put
up
despite
the
rigorous
shooting
schedule.
And
this
was
no
ordinary
building.
It
was,
in
fact,
Q1
(meaning
Queensland
Number
One),
which
is
the
tallest
residential
tower
in
the
world.
At
322.5
meters
(1,058
feet
including
spire)
and
with
a
roof
height
of
275
meters
(902
ft),
it
has
78
storeys.
Akshay's
156-storey
hike
was
so
motivational
for
the
unit
that
actress
Neha
Dhupia
took
up
the
challenge
and
followed
in
his
footsteps
(literally!)
When
asked
to
confirm
the
news,
she
laughs,
"Yes,
it's
true!
When
Akshay
started,
I
knew
I
had
to
do
as
well!
It
was
a
mind
over
matter
situation
for
me.
And
since
Singh
Is
Kinng
is
about
positive
attitude,
I
gave
it
a
shot
and
was
extremely
impressed
with
myself.
I
did
it
in
less
than
30
minutes
without
cheating!" She
adds,
"After
the
hike,
I
was
dead
to
the
world
though.
I'd
return
to
my
room
and
crash!"
Shortly
after
Neha,
it
became
a
practice
for
some
of
the
other
unit
members
to
climb
up
and
down
as
well.
Neha
smiles,
"Everyone
was
like,
if
a
girl
can
do
it,
why
can't
we?!"
Looks
like
this
is
only
a
sampler
of
the
action
which
this
keenly
anticipated
film
is
likely
to
bring
our
way!
