After dazzling the audience in Los Angeles and Toronto, Akshay Kumar had Vancouver in raptures, as he landed in a chopper to promote ‘Singh Is Kinng'

Saturday 02nd August (Vancouver): Catapulting the hype around Singh Is Kinng to a new level, Akshay Kumar landed in Vancouver last Saturday to promote his upcoming release.

The film's worldwide distributor, Studio 18, flew Akshay from Los Angeles to Vancouver in a private jet. Upon landing in Vancouver, he immediately boarded a specially hired chopper that took him to the famous PNE (Pacific National Exhibition) Ground for a concert. As his limo rolled into the venue, the cheering fans went ballistic.

Known for its enormous Sikh community, Vancouver had its natives flocking in thousands to see Kumar on stage, as he enthralled visitors for half an hour with a live interaction and dance moves to the title track of Singh Is Kinng, not once but twice, by public demand.

"Who is behind a successful sardar?" he asked the crowd. The women roared with delight when he beamed, "His sardarni!"

Following the event at PNE, the limo took him to The Fairmont Airport Hotel for an exclusive press conference by Studio 18 US, where he revealed, "Singh Is Kinng is my first production. It means the world to me because my father's named is attached. It is simple, honest and positive; which are the values propounded by my father."

Commenting on how the film and its title came about, he remarked, "When I read the phrase Singh Is King on a truck-back in Jaipur, I told my partner (Vipul Shah) that we had to make a film with this title. That was the starting point. We had no cast, no story, no director, but everything fell in place thereafter!"

Upon completion of the conference, the khiladi-turned-kinng promptly rushed to the adjacent Vancouver airport to board his private jet back to Los Angeles.
