RELEASED in cinemas worldwide today is the new comedy Desi Boyz. Set in the UK, it sees Bollywood star Akshay Kumar reunite with screen hunk John Abraham in a tale of a two overseas students who turn to pole-dancing when they are desperate for cash.
Akshay was recently voted "the fittest body" by People magazine. He and John Abraham previously appeared together in 2005 comedy Garam Masala, while John showed off his own impressive physique when he led the cast of crime drama Force earlier this year.
The cast of Desi Boyz also includes Bollywood beauties Deepika Padukone and Chitrangada Singh.
Desi Boyz marks the directorial debut of Rohit Dhawan, son of one of Indian's cinema's most prized comedy directors, David Dhawan.
Filming took place over several months in locations including Oxford University and London. Below is the official synopsis and a Q&A with Akshay about the new film.
