Jackie Chan in Bollywood

A month ago, Chinese actor Jackie Chan was in a death hoax, allegedly the result of a vehicular accident in Queensland, Australia.

Definitely, the action star is alive and kicking, or make it dancing, Bollywood style, while shooting the Indian movie “Kung Fu Yoga.” With Farah Khan as his choreographer, Chan was spotted while shooting in Jodphur, Rajasthan, wearing the traditional red kurta, reported India.com.

The scene, shot at the Mehrengarh Fort and other scenic spots in Jodhpur, shows the actor dancing. The movie, directed by Stanley Ton, is being filmed not only in India but also in Beijing and Dubai. The multilingual action-adventure film features Bollywood actors Sonu Sood and Amyra Dastur.

 In Jaipur, Sonu unveiled Chan’s wax figure. The Indian actor, Chan’s co-star in “Kung Fu Yoga,” tweeted his photo unveiling the wax statute of the Chinese actor who has an Indian turban on his head and in a Kung Fu.

However, it seems the popular actor may need more than just Kung Fu skills these days to defend himself, but perhaps a legal team as well. Chan was included in the list of wealthy individuals with offshore accounts in the notorious Panama Papers, reported SFGate on Tuesday.

His link was through Mossack Fonseca, the Panamanian law firm that originated the documents. Chan is the owner of six businesses that Mossack manages. But his inclusion in the list does not necessarily imply any wrongdoing, such as money laundering or other illegal activities, on the part of the actor, the U.S. daily wrote.

Other entertainment figures in the list include famous director Pedro Almodovar and Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan who owns four companies in the British Virgin Islands.
