Watching him perform his many daredevil stunts, you’d be tempted to assume that fear is not a factor for Akshay Kumar. But the khiladi apparently does have one great fear — his wife Twinkle Khanna! “I am scared of my wife,” admits an unabashed Akki. “But then, every man is. I am scared of the way she shouts, the way she dances — even her gestures can sometimes be scary!”
While that may be construed as a backhanded compliment (the jury’s still out on that one), Akki was certainly less mysterious when it came to praising his son Aarav. Commenting on his tot’s love for action and high-energy sequences, the proud dad says, “Aarav has been bouncing off the walls…he has a lot of fun doing it, but it’s bad for the wallpaper! I like the way he is growing up though.”
Akshay adds that watching his son reminds him of his own childhood: “When I was in my early teens, I would play everything from cricket to volleyball and badminton. People called me ‘rocket’!”
