Gerard Butler wanted to make an impromptu trip to nearby India for the post-birthday celebrations
PS I Love You star Gerard
Butler's last-minute plan to spend his birthday in India was
wrecked after he failed to leave enough time to obtain a visa.
The 43-year-old Scottish actor, who was in Dubai recently
for a store opening, decided to take an impromptu trip to
nearby India for the post-birthday celebrations, reported
Hollywood life.
Butler celebrated his birthday on November 13 and the
same day he headed to the Indian embassy in Dubai for a travel
permit but had to abandon his plan when he was told the
documents would not be available for a week.
"I am very disorganised. So at the last minute here in
Dubai, I decided I wanted to go to India for my birthday. But
I went to the embassy here today (Wednesday). They were
excited to see me, but they said 'No' and that it would take
seven days. So this year, I will go to Scotland and spend time
with my family," he said.
Butler has turned producer for upcoming film Playing for
Keeps, where he is also acting. The film will hit theatres on
December 7.
