Akshay Kumar opened up about his son Aarav Kumar recently and said that he doesn’t want to be in films. The actor also said that Aarav is more like his mother, Twinkle Khanna and has no bad habits.
Speaking to ABP News, Akshay said that he is not a strict father. “That job belongs to my wife. She is a very serious kind and she keeps us three kids — me, Nitara and Aarav — in line. I am more like a friend to my son. He is 23 years old and he has grown-up very fast. He is studying at the university and he is very much involved in his studies, he has no bad habits. He is more like Twinkle because she also studies a lot,” Akshay said.
He added, “He doesn’t want to come in films. He has told me straight, ‘Dad mere ko nahi aana (Dad I don’t want to come). I tell him to take the reins of my production company but he doesn’t want to do it. He wants to remain in fashion. He wants to be a designer. He is learning fashion at the moment and he’s happy in that life.” He added, “I want him to come in films but I am also happy with his decision.”
Akshay also talked about a lesson he gave Aarav on his birthday. He said, “I wrote him a letter and it read like, ‘Your father has run around a lot in many scenes in films, I have done a lot of running while shooting also, but the keyword is patience. Everything in life should not be a two-minute noodles. You can’t get everything in two minutes. Slow fire is much better than a two-minute noodle.”
Aarav moved to London when he was 15 and has been away from limelight.
Meanwhile, Akshay was recently seen in the courtroom-drama, Jolly LLB 3, which was released in theatres on September 19.
