Baring one’s soul on the internet can lead to many a revelations. So when Bollywood star Akshay Kumar started interacting with his fans on Twitter.com, many interesting facts tumbled out:
Akshay Likes Competition
While we all know about Akshay Kumar and Shah Rukh Khan’s camaraderie (the two never miss a chance to meet up while shooting in the same studio in Mumbai), Akshay’s admiration for the Hrithik Roshan was lesser know. In reply to question by a fan, Akshay tweeted, “I don’t blame you for being a huge SRK & Hrithik fan, they are incredible actors as well as amazing people.”
Akshay Doesn’t Booze
While people say that it is difficult to find out which Bollywood star drinks or smokes (as many of them indulge in private), Akshay Kumar, who is a self confessed fitness freak, has never been associated with any such ills. Yet, the star was patient enough to clarify his position once again: “Many people ask if I drink! To be honest, I don’t, people say I’m boring, I don’t care.” Well that makes Akshay a suitable candidate for an anti-addiction campaign, doesn’t it?

Akshay Never Fakes
Remember the 1996 Akshay Kumar starrer Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi? The movie, co-starring Rekha, had Akshay fighting it out with international WWF fighters including ‘The Undertaker’. Many still wonder if Akshay, a trained martial arts fighter, actually sparred with the wrestling star. Akshay cleared the air by tweeting: “So you wana know the truth! Question is can u handle the truth. Did I honestly wrestle the real UNDERTAKER of the 90’s? Of course I did, I’ve never faked anything in life.”
