Hugh Learns to Dance From SRK


Hollywood actor Hugh Jackman, who shared the stage with Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar at a panel discussion on the entertainment industry at FICCI Frames 2011 in Mumbai this evening, said that he was looking forward to working in Bollywood.

"Indian cinema is growing every year. I am looking forward to working in Bollywood films. I am meeting directors. I hope Karan Johar is listening," Jackman said.

"I am a huge fan of Shah Rukh Khan and I loved his film My Name is Khan. I want to do a sequel to this film and that will be called My Name is Jackman and I am not a terrorist", the actor said.

The Australian actor further said, "Indian cinema is huge and is popular in Australia. People over there know about Bollywood. They are inspired by Bollywood films."

Hugh Jackman also spoke about Mumbai. "It's just been 24 hours since I arrived here but I feel I am here for a week. It is the most amazing city and country. My wife and I always wanted to come here to Mumbai...people are incredible, the place is amazing, the history....the spirituality and everything...I just love it.



Bollywood heartthrob Aishwarya Rai presented a memento to the Australian actor and producer. "I feel Aishwarya is the most beautiful woman and a great actress. But even my wife is the most beautiful woman," Jackman quipped.


The actor shook a leg with Shahrukh to the beats of famous Hindi song Dhak Dhak Karne Laga.

Jackman, known for his role as Wolverine in the popular X Men series, arrived in Mumbai with wife Deborra-Lee Furness yesterday.
