“I am now sitting in my van being tortured by my make-up artists to look like an old haggard man in the stunning mountains of Manali. About to shoot the much awaited song with Ash (Aishwarya) who still looks 21 even when they try and make her look 50,” Akshay posted on micro-blogging site Twitter.
The actor says he hates make-up and he has to apply oodles of it for his role in the Vipul Shah film, a time travel comedy tale based in Mumbai of the 1950s. The actors require a retro look to be in tune with the theme of the film.
“For the record, I hate make-up, so Vipul Shah you owe me a Bentley...can't believe in three days 'Action Replay' will be wrapped,” added Akshay.
