Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar in his next film "Patiala House", will be seen essaying a role which has been inspired by England cricket team's Sikh member Monty Singh Panesar.
Panesar is the first Sikh to join England cricket team and the spinner is a crowd favourite. Panesar's parents migrated there from Punjab.
In "Patiala House", Akshay will be seen as Parghat Singh Kahlon, a British citizen whose dream is to be a pace bowler.
The film is being directed by Nikhil Advani and also stars Anushka Sharma, Rishi Kapoor and Dimple Kapadia. It is slated to release in Feb 2011.
