Hoo-K-ed

NOT JUST Ekta Kapoor, former Miss Universe-turned-actress Lara Dutta too considers the letter `K' lucky! "Besides the fact that the man I've been seeing for the last five years is Kelly, my name in my first three films begins with K— Kajal in "Andaz", Kesar in "Mumbai Se Aaya Mera Dost" and Kiran in "Aan," says Lara. Debutant Apoorva Lakhiya's "Mumbai Se...." is being premiered at the IFFA awards in London next month. About "Aan", Lara is sporting enough to admit that she's just the "flavouring in a hero-dominated film". Akshay Kumar, her co-star in the film saved her from sharks in Cape Town during the shooting of "Andaz". "I hate to say this because it may pamper his ego. But Akshay did save my life there." Two years ago, during the making of "Farz" another Punjab da puttar, Sunny Deol rescued Preity Zinta from plunging to sure-death from slippery rocks. Is it just a bizarre coincidence that both films were directed by Raj Kanwar?
