The crew wrapped up their Cape Town schedule for 8x10; the film is now ready for releaseAkshay Kumar just wrapped up the shooting of Percept Picture Company's 8x10 in South Africa, four days ahead of schedule.
Crazy times
Shailendra Singh, Percept Holdings joint MD, says, "It was a crazy schedule and a very intense one. In fact, we have a release date for the film now and are very excited about the project. I think it will be Bolly-wood's first psychological thriller. Akshay is phenomenal in it. Now the special effects and post production work on the film begins." The film will release on March 27, 2009.
Praising Akshay for his daredevil stunts in the film Singh says, "Everyone knows Akshay's dedication to his action scenes. But you have to be there in person to witness the man! It was freezing cold, some minus five degrees and Akshay had to perform an underwater scene. He just rolled up his pants and walked in without hesitating. I told him to use a stunt double but he just refused."
Despite some schedule problems in Canada, Singh says he's glad the film is finally ready to release. "I believe every film has its destiny. Maybe 8 x10 was not supposed to be shot in Calgary. But Cape Town is beautiful and we've shot some amazing action scenes with Akshay."
