Akshay Kumar turned 43 on September 9, 2010 His wife Twinkle Khanna hosted a surprise party on Wednesday night for the Khiladi Star which was attended by a few close friends. Among many attractions at the party, the watch that Akshay wore, definitely invited the attention of the shutterbugs. When asked by one of his friends about the flashing new watch, Akki smiled saying that it was Vipul Shah, the director and producer of Action Replayy who gave him the gift.

The watch is believed to be a 1975 vintage classic costing a cool Rs. 18 lakhs. Akshay remarked that it was very sweet of Vipul to do so and joked that since it was gifted to him by his director friend, he hoped that he would not deduct the amount from his pay-package. Vipul Shah said, “All I can say is that more than anything else I am glad that Akshay wore the watch at the event. It was indeed very nice of him to do so. The cost of the watch is not important as it’s a gift for a friend on his birthday. Apart from being the star of my film, he is also a dear friend and since he has now worn it, it has become priceless for me.”
