Kajal Aggarwal a fan of Akshay Kumar

Mumbai: `Singham` actress Kajal Aggarwal says she is a big fan of superstar Akshay Kumar`s work and sharing the screen space with him in upcoming movie `Special Chabbis` was a learning experience.

Aggarwal plays a school teacher and Kumar`s love interest in the movie, which has been directed by Neeraj Pandey. "It was a great experience working with Akshay Kumar I have been a huge fan of his and I learnt a lot too" she said. Aggarwal is the only female with 26 men in the upcoming film which also stars Jimmy Shergill, Manoj Bajpai and Anupam Kher. Speaking of her role, she said, "It was a wonderful experience playing a teacher. I was always very notorious in my school and college days for giving my teachers a hard time. "My role in `Special Chabbis` is quite contrary to how I am as a person so it was something different. Also since the movie is set in the early 80`s, I have worn a lot of simple Indian clothes." PTI
