Om Shanti Om made a record of sorts by getting together several Bollywood stars for the Deewangi song. Vipul Shah's Singh is Kinng goes one step further and gets together all the big names from Bollywood that you missed in that song for one of its scenes. So you have Amitabh Bachhan, Aamir Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor and Sunny Deol coming together for a scene in Singh is Kinng . Add to it Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt from the original. This one's not for a song sequence like in Om Shanti Om but for a kidnapping scene. Ok, before we take things too far here's the real story.

There's a kidnapping scene in Singh is Kinng where Akshay Kumar and his gang cover their face with masks to hide their identity. In this particular scene the gang wears the masks of Bollywood superstars including all the above mentioned names. Apparently it happens to be one of the most hilarious scenes from the film. It is heard that the scene is so funny that not just the Indian team but even the Aussie crew almost fell down laughing, though they had no clue about the language.

Director Anees Bazmee can't control his laughter while recollecting the scene and says, "The actors are not only wearing masks of Bollywood personalities but also imitating the respective actors in the scene. While filming this kidnapping sequence even I couldn't recognize who was who on the sets. They all were just too good. The scene shaped up very well and the whole cast and crew just couldn't stop laughing".

Incidentally the Hollywood film Point Break starring Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze had a similar sequence where a group named 'Ex-Presidents' robs banks wearing masks of ex-US Presidents Reagen, Nixon, Carter and Johnson.
