Coming next: Guess where Akki chills out
Just as the Canadian Tourism Commission ( CTC) reported that India was its highest growing source market after China ( with Indian tourist arrivals showing a 14.1 per cent rise, year on year, in January- June 2011), Akshay Kumar described the country of Speedy Singhs as “ jannat” during his latest appearance in Delhi.
The actor, who has coproduced the ice hockey-themed comedy drama Speedy Singhs, is CTC’s Indian brand ambassador and his love for the country comes through in his effusive statements — and there’s clearly nothing “ sponsored” about his sentiments. As he had said on another occasion, his happiest moment was when he was able to help his father, months before his death, to realise his dream of going to Canada. “ I have been to so many countries, but it’s the people of Canada whom I have found to be the most friendly,” he said at a news conference at the Canadian High Commissioner’s residence on Monday.
So what are Akki’s favourite Canadian destinations? Here’s his mustvisit list: Whistler: This resort town 125km north of Vancouver and venue of the 2010 Winter Olympics attracts two million alpine skiing and mountain biking aficionados annually.Banff: Another popular destination in Canada’s Alberta province, mountainous Banff is famous for its ski resorts nestled in the Rockie Mountains and its hot sprints.
Jasper: Home to Canada’s largest national park, Jasper in Alberta is dotted with lakes and waterfalls, and is an animal lover’s dream destination — from grizzly bears to wolverines, it has every form of wildlife you could ask for.
Victoria: One of the oldest cities of Canada’s Pacific North- West, Victoria is a tourist treat because of its mix of temperate climate, heritage, scenic gardens and active bicycling culture.
Montreal: This lively French- speaking city is home to some of Canada’s best restaurants and pubs; its jazz scene is the liveliest in the country; and it has a rocking nightlife. It is Canada’s city that never sleeps. For the thrill- seeker, Canada offers an abundance of opportunities.

Coming next: Crores for Duggu film even before shoot begins
Everyone in the film industry these days, seems to be celebrating the success of their films at the drop of a hat. And now the new trend is to celebrate the the same even before its shooting has started. Hrithik Roshan’s next biggie Krrish 3 has already struck a Rs 125 crore deal even before the filmmakers have even started shooting the film, a source said.
Interestingly, Hrithik’s last film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara ( ZNMD ) has had a huge collection at the box office. Of course, Hrithik is a happy man these days for he has had to deal with several flops before ZNMD . Kites , his ambitious home production co- starring the sexy Barbara Mori and then Guzaarish , Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much hyped film that also starred Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, had flopped miserably, giving Hrithik sleepless nights.
Now, Hrithik is hoping that Shah Rukh Khan’s sci- fi superhero flick Ra. One does well because that will make the cash registers at the box office ring, which in turn will raise the value of Krrish 3 further.
Meanwhile, Hrithik’s other film, Agneepath , co- starring Sanjay Dutt, is waiting to be sold to distributors. Let’s hope for Hrithik’s sake, if 2011 was good for the film industry, where films earned more than ` 100 crore, 2012 will be even better.

Coming next: Ameesha to star in Tamil remake
