The stu

Akshay Kumar’s already preparing to make a hero/ action star out of his 6 year and a half year old son Aarav.

Now we know how Action Kumar’s a stunt freak and all that. But what’s with imposing his ways on he child?

We wish he has only concentrated on stunts on his son and not just pulling off stunts etc on the ramp and create controversy.

But the good thing is that maniac Akki is not only imposing stunts on Sonny dearest. He’s only making him play football.

It’s another matter that he’s actually teaching him some mean moves on the field

There were doubts about the box office prospects of Akshay Kumar starrer 8X10 TASVEER even before it's release. Reason? The film had seen the least hype for an Akshay Kumar starrer in last 3-4 years and the actor too was underplaying the promotion of the film. As the release date got closer, it was quite obvious that it won't take a thunderous opening as expected from an Akshay starrer. Instead it would settle down for a 50-60% opening only and see an increase in collections only if the word of mouth is good.

A gesture for the sake of fun has landed Akshay Kumar in trouble. Akshay Kumar's unbuttoning act during Lakme Fashion Week has brought wrath of social activists.

Anil Nair, a social activist has logged a complaint at the Vakola police station against the actor, his wife Twinkle Khanna and the event organizers.

Akshay Kumar said: "If I have hurt anyone's sentiments with my actions, I am sorry because I did not mean to."

2009 may have begun on a debacle note for Khiladi Kumar with CC2C going under but he has many chances to regain his lost glory. Unlike his competitors, who have only one or two films each scheduled for release this year (My Name is Khan for SRK, 3 Idiots for Aamir, London Dreams, Veer for Salman and Kites for Hrithik), Akki has four. Today his Eight By ten is releasing which is sci-fi, thriller and action oriented film. We just look at his rest of the films which would release this year.

When during a long Canadian schedule of his ambitious project 8 By 10, the non-Indian stunt director turned out to be a bit of fraud the director Nagesh Kukunoor decided to direct some of the stunts himself. And rightly so, considering Akshay Kumar’s plays Nagesh’s doppelganger in the film.

In their first collaborative effort Akshay plays a role inspired by his director Nagesh Kukunoor .

Reveals Nagesh, “I like to cast characters who are close to me. And this one gets as close to me as possible. I was once an environmental consultant. Akshay play the part of an environment protection officer.”
