Didn't expect Hugh Jackman to surprise me: Asin

Actress Asin says she did not expect Hollywood star Hugh Jackman to surprise her on her birthday.

Asin recently celebrated her 28th birthday with her friends from the industry and Jackman had sent her a special video message, which was played at the party by a common friend.

"Though I have spoken to Hugh Jackman on many occasions before, I did not expect him to surprise me with his sweet message. It was extremely thoughtful of him," Asin said.

Asin, who was touched by the gesture, met Jackman several times through her social circle in New York.

Also, the 'Les Miserables' star promised to be in the country the next year to wish her personally on her birthday.
