Hollywood
superstar
Will
Smith,
who
was
on
his
fourth
trip
to
India,
said
he
loves
the
country
and
its
history.
The
actor
also
revealed
that
the
last
time
he
was
in
India,
he
partied
at
Akshay
Kumar's
house
and
loved
the
food.
"I
have
been
here
a
few
times.
I
love
the
history.
I
am
90
per
cent
through
with
the
'Bhagvat
Gita'...
and
to
be
reading
it
and
to
be
here,
my
inner
Arjuna
is
being
channelled.
I
am
going
to
go
to
Rishikesh
next
time.
I
am
definitely
going
to
be
spending
a
lot
more
time
here,"
he
told
journalists.
The
actor,
who
was
on
a
one-day
visit,
brought
along
the
cast
Joel
Edgerton,
Noomi
Rapace
and
director
David
Ayer
-
of
his
latest
Netflix
movie
Bright
for
the
premiere
in
Mumbai.
As
he
took
the
stage
at
a
fan
event
here,
he
won
over
the
crowd,
who
had
waited
for
hours
to
see
him,
with
his
exuberance.
"I
am
Will
Smith.
We
are
very
excited
to
be
here,"
the
actor
told
PTI.
In
a
media
round
table
earlier
in
the
day,
Smith
fondly
recalled
the
great
food
he
had
at
Bollywood
star
Akshay
Kumar's
place
during
his
last
trip.
"The
last
time
I
was
here,
we
had
a
party
at
Akshay's
place.
I
loved
the
food.
It
was
the
best
food
I
ever
had
in
my
life,"
he
said,
adding
that
he
did
not
feel
it
would
be
right
to
call
the
Bollywood
actor
and
get
some
food
over
as
he
was
only
staying
for
a
day.
His
co-star
Edgerton
said
he
attended
a
Bollywood
award
function
and
visited
the
sets
of
"Ferrari
Ki
Sawaari"
the
last
time
he
was
in
India.
"I
came
here
in
2012.
I
visited
the
set
of
'Ferrari
Ki
Sawaari' and
I
went
to
a
Bollywood
award
function
and
presented
the
best
film
with
Vidhu
Vinod
Chopra.
He
got
up
in
front
of
everybody
and
said,
'This
is
my
friend
Joel,
you
have
no
idea
who
he
is,
Google
him.'
I
went
red
in
the
face
but
it
was
amazing,"
the
Australian
actor
said.
Both
Edgerton
and
Ayer
had
stories
about
Smith's
"always
happy"
attitude
and
how
it
sometimes
got
to
them.
Asked
who
the
prankster
on
the
sets
was,
everyone
pointed
to
Smith.
"I
like
to
have
fun
but
Joel
had
to
go
through
three
and
half
hours
of
make-up
every
day.
So
he
was
not
in
a
joking
mood.
He
was
not
very
jokey,"
Smith
said.
"Bright"
is
set
in
an
alternate
version
of
present
day
Los
Angeles
in
which
Orcs,
Elves
and
humans
live
side-by-
side.
The
story
revolves
around
a
human
LAPD
officer
and
his
Orc
companion
as
they
patrol
the
streets.
They
battle
their
prejudice
and
mistrust
to
protect
a
relic,
which
in
the
wrong
hands,
could
destroy
the
world.
Edgerton,
who
plays
the
role
of
an
Orc
police
officer
opposite
Smith,
said
his
highlight
was
sitting
in
a
car
and
waving
at
people
at
traffic
lights
in
his
full
Orc
make-up
to
scare
them.
"Will
likes
to
have
too
much
fun
and
he
is
a
little
bit
too
positive.
I
remember,
one
day
he
comes
to
me
and
he
is
in
this
positive
mood
and
he
is
like,
'What's
up'
and
I
am
like,
'Will,
leave
me
alone'."
Ayer
said
he
was
racing
against
time
to
complete
the
film
as
they
were
behind
schedule
and
Smith
would
try
to
cheer
him
up.
"For
some
reason,
I
like
to
shoot
in
the
dark
and
in
the
rain.
It
looks
good.
Will
Smith
will
come
singing
Christmas
carols
and
songs
and
I
am
very
angry
because
we
are
behind
schedule.
No
matter
how
hard
he
tried,
he
could
not
make
me
happy
but
I
think
I
succeeded
in
making
him
a
little
sad,"
the
director
joked.
Smith
said
he
enjoyed
working
on
the
sci-fi
crime
drama,
out
on
Netflix
on
December
22,
because
it
gave
him
a
chance
to
look
at
racism
from
the
other
side.
"It
is
about
racism
and
how
we
treat
each
other.
In
this
film,
Elves
are
the
top
of
the
society
and
they
represent
those
who
have
and
Orcs
represent
those
who
do
not
have
and
humans
are
in
the
middle.
"My
character,
as
an
African-American,
is
racist
against
the
Orcs.
It
was
an
interesting
exploration
about
how
we
treat
each
other.
What
I
love
about
science-fiction
is
that
you
get
to
go
into
this
bizarre
fantasy
world
but
you
are
actually
talking
about
real
things,"
he
said.
Rapace,
who
plays
the
role
of
a
Elf,
Leilah,
said
the
film
had
multiple
layers
and
offered
an
interesting
perspective.
