He revealed that while shooting at the famous Chomu Palace in Jaipur, which was also the same location for Bhool Bhulaiyaa's shoot in 2006, he encountered a fan. A woman came up to him for a picture, and it turned into an adorable moment, one which led to Akshay dubbing it as his favourite selfie.

Talking about it, Akshay said as he showed the said selfie on his phone with a veiled woman, “Unhone ek selfie maangi, aur apni shakal nahi dikhayi! Unhone apne culture ko pakad ke rakha. I can never forget this, this was the beauty of Rajasthan.”
