Akshay Kumar has reached a level in the industry where most of the actors just dream of being. He is neither a Khan nor a Kapoor, yet has created a niche for himself. One of the actors who has more than two releases every year is Khiladi Kumar and his film hardly ever misses the 100 crore mark. But did you know that there was a time when a journalist named Prabhu Chawla labelled him as a B grade actor of the industry?
We must say that the actor has a patience of a monk and did not lose his cool despite facing a tremendous amount of insult during this interview. Forget being called B grade, Akshay was also indirectly called a ‘gawaar’. Well, no actor can take such an insult and that too by a journalist. But, the Airlift actor did not utter a word of disrespect and shut the interviewer with his wit and smile. Keep scrolling further to know more about this interview.
While interviewing Akshay Kumar, Prabhu Chawla directly asked him that why he is not in the A-Lister category of Bollywood yet like the Khan’s? Is it because he is from Punjab? The interviewer then gave an example of Dharmendra, who, according to him, was a B-lister actor despite being one of the best in terms of acting. Khiladi Kumar just with a smile plastered on his face replied that “aapne Amitabh Bachchan Ji ke baare me pucha hi nahi, wo to khan nahi hai”.
