Once the famous Oscar winning director Satyajit Roy had made the "Shatranj Ke Khiladi" with Amjad Khan and Sayeed Jafrey, where they had to learn to play the chess thoroughly. Then it was only for the film, but in reality Bollywood has its own ‘shatranj ke khiladi' – Akshay Khanna!

He is incredible in the game of chess. Recently, he was shooting for Abbas Masatan's next project "Race" with Saif Ali Khan in Yashraj Studio, where in between the breaks Akshay literally pulled everybody from the cast to crew to play chess with him, including the director duo.

He is the master of the game and defeats everybody; actually he can read the mind of the opponents and thinks five steps ahead. He knows how to move his horses from one side to other side and accordingly he moves his horses and confuses everybody.

In the sets of "Naqaab" in Duabi, he played chess everyday with the unit members of the film and defeated all of them with his fast moves.

Abbbas-Mastan's "Naqaab" is also a thriller where everybody plays game with everybody so we can surely call Akshay the new ‘shatranj ke khiladi'.
