Akshay throws birthday bash for Suniel Shetty

New Delhi, Aug 14 (IANS) Bollywood star Akshay Kumar threw a bash for his friend and co-actor Suniel Shetty for his 49th birthday in Toronto, Canada, where they are shooting for Anees Bazmee's romantic comedy 'Thank You'.

'Having so much fun with the 'Thank You' guys in Toronto. It was our big brother's 49th birthday...so I threw a surprise sushi celebration bash for Suniel Shetty,' Akshay posted on his Twitter page.

From what Akshay describes of the party, it seems like the boys had great fun.

'The room was full of non-alcoholics, so we forced champagne and shots down each other's necks, stood on chairs (or in my case a wooden wall) and expressed our love and respect for the fittest man in Bollywood,' added Akshay.

'Thank You', produced by UTV Motion Pictures, also features Sonam Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Irrfan Khan, Celina Jaitley and Rimi Sen. The movie is slated for a 2011 release.
