Kumar crashes car into Mounty's vehicle

Akshay Kumar crashed into a Mounty's car while filming in Canada.

The 42-year-old actor was apparently driving back and forth in a scene for Thank You when he hit the Canadian policeman's car.

"It was a simple shot where Akshay had to reverse his car and then move forward. The camera was set across the road to get a proper shot and the unit members were there too. There were a couple of retakes from different angles. Akshay did not realise that a cop had parked his car behind him. So while giving another take, Akshay hit the police car," a source told Times Of India.

"The cop refused to listen to Akshay. The unit saw the commotion and rushed to the other side, but the cop had already cut the ticket and demanded a fine. Akshay had no choice but to cough up the fine. The unit and director Anees Bazmee explained to the cop that it was for a shot. The cop ended up laughing but he had already fined Akshay."

The insider added: "[The cop] then spoke to everyone in the unit and even clicked a picture with Akshay on his cell phone. Akshay jokingly told Anees that this is his first ticket ever and he is sad that he got it in Canada and not India."

Bazmee added: "Yes, Akshay got a ticket. He didn't realise that a car had come and parked behind him. We are enjoying teasing Akshay about getting his first ticket."
