Hollywood icon Will Smith is in India, and he got a taste of Bollywood glamour when he joined a star-studded party hosted by actor Akshay Kumar here on Sunday night.

The American actor-singer-producer, best known for films like "Independence Day" and "Men In Black", is all smiles in some of the photographs that have emerged online, from the party.

Akshay and Smith seem to be at ease in each other's company, and look happy to pose for the cameras. Their jovial mood reflects in the images.

Akshay is seen dressed smartly in a black shirt teamed up with a white trouser, while the "Suicide Squad" star is seen wearing a striped t-shirt in hues of red, black and white.

Akshay hosted the party for his friends to enjoy the successful run of three of his films - "Airlift", "Housefull 3" and "Rustom", all of which have surpassed the Rs 100 crore mark.

His wife Twinkle Khanna was excited to host Smith.

"Guess who came over for dinner last night? Now I have to stop saying that I have no Willpower:) #freshprinceofbelair," Twinkle posted on Twitter on Monday with a photograph featuring her all smiles with Smith.

While the social media is abuzz with Smith's party hopping in India, the actor has not shared anything about his trip to the country in the virtual world.

Other tinsel town stars like Varun Dhawan, Ranbir Kapoor, Karan Johar, Rohit Dhawan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Shraddha Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Arjun Kapoor and Sonakshi Sinha were a part of the bash.

Jacqueline took to Twitter to give a dekko at what happened at the party with an image where she is seen posing with Smith, Varun and Alia. The caption read: "OMG #freshprinceofbelair".

As far as Smith's visit is concerned, there is no information yet about why he is in India.

This is not the first time he is in the country. He helped launch Sony's Pix channel in India back in 2008, and "The Pursuit of Happyness" star also became a part of reality show "Indian Idol" for an episode of a past season.
