06 Oct, 2018

Hollywood star Will Smith in a recent event showed some bhangra moves as he spoke about having a Bollywood dance sequence on his bucket list.

The Grammy Award winning actor spoke at length about his childhood, struggle as an artiste, dealing with failure and setting the goal for himself to be the best movie star in the world at the 16th Hindustan Times Leadership Summit.

“One of the things on my bucket list is to be on a Bollywood dance sequence,” he said as he recounted meeting former Miss World Aishwarya Rai Bachchan 15 years ago and their conversation about doing something together. “But it never happened. Perhaps I would do a film with her,” said Smith, Indian media reported.

Smith also tried his hand at some Bhangra on stage with guidance from actor Farhan Akhtar. Farhan took to her Instagram account to share bhangra moves of ‘Men in Black’ actor.

For Smith, playing Muhammad Ali was a life-changing experience in his career. “I wanted them and the family to love the movie. I was sitting behind (boxer) Muhammad Ali when he was watching ‘Ali’ for the first time. For an hour, he didn't move and I thought he hates it. There is a scene where I was screaming and he turned to his wife and said, 'Was I that crazy' and he turned to me and said, 'Man you've done a great job',” he said.
