Akshay Kumar 'cheats 'Housefull' diet'

Akshay Kumar has reportedly not been sticking to the strict diet that he was put on for new film Housefull.

The movie's director Sajid Khan revealed that the actor, who has been shooting Italy, asked him not to tell his personal trainer what he had been up to.

"A scene required the cast to emerge from the water with Greek god toned bodies and hence they were all on rigorous workout and diet schedules. While Sajid Khan, Farah Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala would gorge on the local delicacies the cast couldn't help but watch with envy," a source told Real Bollywood.

"Akshay came to my room while we were on our Italy schedule and ordered a whole lot of food which was delivered to my room and told me not to tell Jennifer (his trainer) about it. On asking him why he was cheating on his diet he funnily replied, 'I'm only human'," Khan added.
