MUMBAI: Superstar Akshay Kumar says he doesn’t have any issues with his song being used in a spoof video starring Irrfan Khan and actually finds it “very funny”.
“You are intelligent enough to think it was in good humour. In the same way, I also feel the same way,” he told media persons at the official launch of ‘Brothers: Clash Of Fighters’ mobile game with his co-star Sidharth Malhotra, to queries on the spoof of his song Party All Night from Boss.
Did he enjoy it? “Absolutely. It was very funny,” he said,
Akshay also supports the concept of party songs being used specifically for bringing in the audiences.

“That’s okay. Even Irrfan was making fun of himself because he himself has done many party songs. One was with me only in Thank You,” he said, referring to a modified club version of popular song Pyar Do Pyar Lo from film Thank You, where Bobby Deol is also one of the actors.
In the video, makers All India Bakchod (AIB) say that Irrfan has never done a party song, so in a way Akshay has pointed out a flaw in the very reason why they chose to make Irrfan feature in a party song in their video.
