Watch: Akshay Kumar's 'Gold' may be about Hockey but on set he made his co-actors play everything from football to uno

As Akshay Kumar's film 'Gold' strikes gold at the box office, the makers of the film released a BTS video showcasing the on-set fun Akshay had with his cast and crew. Bollywood's Khiladi not only led team 'Gold' on screen but also off screen as he got the entire cast and crew to play numerous games on sets.

While the film revolves around hockey, the video features the team playing a lot of games like cricket, football, lagori, badminton, tennis, throwball, dog and bone, dumb charades, arm wrestling, boxing to even UNO. 

Director Reema Kagti says, "Most of the time you have actors who are kind of unhappy with the long hours they are spending on set, but these guys would just keep playing so it was good for me. I didn't have to deal with anybody." 

Akshay led this idea as he was not just the team's manager on camera but even off the camera. Akshay explains the importance of sports at the end of the video and asks parents to encourage their kids to play sports not just hockey but any sport. 

Directed by Reema Kagti, Excel Entertainment's 'Gold' also stars Mouni Roy, Kunal Kapoor, Amit Sadh, Vineet Singh and Sunny Kaushal.
