The upcoming episode of the quiz reality show Wheels of Fortune will feature actress Jacqueline Fernandez sharing a personal experience from her early days in the film industry. During the show, she spoke about a prank played on her by actor Akshay Kumar, which left her feeling scared at the time.
While interacting on the show, Akshay asked her, “Aapko 17 saal ho gaye hain industry main, kabhi aapse kisine galat baat ki hai?” Jacqueline responded with a laugh and said, “Yes, bahut!” This led to further conversation where she was asked to explain her answer.
Jacqueline then spoke about an incident that happened during the shooting of her first item song “Dhanno” from the film Housefull. She said, “Mera pehla item song ‘Dhanno’ tha in ‘Housefull’, aur us, waqt Akshay ne mere saath bahut ganda prank kiya tha. It actually gave me trauma!”
She explained that there was a lot of security present on the set, including bodyguards and people standing around. She assumed it was normal and casually asked why there was so much security. Later, Akshay approached her and said, “Jacqueline, tumne kuch galat kiya hai kya? Police tumhare liye aayi hain. Song ke baad tumhe station le jayenge.”
Jacqueline added, “Main poore song ke dauraan itni darr gayi thi, mujhe samajh hi nahi aa raha tha maine aisa kya kiya hain.” She said that she felt confused and worried throughout the shoot because of what she was told.
After hearing this, Akshay responded and said, “Agar maine aisa kiya tha, toh main sorry bolta hoon.” He also shared his thoughts on such situations by saying, “Insaan ko haste-khelte rehna chahiye, thodi masti karte rehna chahiye. Prank bhi karne chahiye, but sirf tab tak jab tak kisi ko dukh na ho. Agar kisi ko dukh nahi hua, toh masti chalte rehni chahiye.”
The song “Dhanno” was part of the film Housefull, which featured actors like Arjun Rampal, Deepika Padukone, Lara Dutta, Riteish Deshmukh, Boman Irani, and Randhir Kapoor. Jacqueline appeared in the song as a special performance.
