Actress Pragya Jaiswal, who recently shared screen space with Akshay Kumar in the multi-starrer Khel Khel Mein, had nothing but praise for the actor’s infectious energy and impeccable comic timing. While she describes him as a prankster, Pragya also emphasized how his sense of humor and ability to deliver on-screen comedy are truly unmatched.
 
The film, directed by Mudassar Aziz and based on the 2016 Italian film Perfect Strangers, featured an ensemble cast including Fardeen Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Vaani Kapoor, Ammy Virk, Aditya Seal, and Pragya herself. Reflecting on her time working with Akshay Kumar, Pragya shared a funny behind-the-scenes memory:
 
"Akshay Kumar has this child-like energy; he is such a prankster. I remember when we were shooting Khel Khel Mein, there was this scene where I had to run to the terrace by crossing a swimming pool. We were waiting for the scene to be set up, and I was standing under a shower. Akshay Sir called me aside and pretended to turn on the shower, trying to get me wet! Just as he was about to do that, someone shouted, 'Sir, not now! The shoot will be cancelled!' It was all in good fun, and that’s the kind of prankster he is. But apart from being playful on set, his comic timing is unparalleled. He’s just too good at it.”
 
Pragya, who made her debut in Tamil cinema and has earned recognition in Telugu, Tamil, and Hindi films, also reflected on her journey in the industry. She revealed how her perspective on the world of cinema changed once she became a part of it.
 
"When you look at the industry from the outside, it seems dazzling, sparkling, and almost inaccessible," she said. "You wonder how everything works out. But when you become a part of it, meet people, and interact with them, you realize that at the end of the day, all of them are just normal human beings. They might be superstars in their own right, and have achieved so much, but they are really nice people who get up every morning and work hard to make their dreams come true. It’s a grounding feeling when you work with big superstars, and you realize that the glittering world you see from the outside is actually quite simple and beautiful. Everyone is just trying to achieve their dreams."
 
After the success of Daaku Maharaaj, Pragya’s career continues to soar, with upcoming projects like Akhanda 2 and Tyson Naidu in the pipeline. As she continues to grow as an actress, her experience working with some of the biggest stars in the industry is clearly leaving an indelible mark on her own journey.
