Being a part of the industry is the easy part, surviving is what really takes a toll,” he said. The actor said that when he came to the industry, he was graded as a B-class actor. No one took him in big films. That is why he always experimented with new directors.

The Rowdy Rathore also dismissed rumours about quitting stunts. “Bandar kabhi koodna bandh nai kar sakta (A monkey can’t stop jumping),” he quipped, adding, though he temporarily stayed away from stunts after his son was born, he has not quit it. “I prefer to be called a stuntman first, then an actor,” Akshay stated.
He revealed that adequate sleeps and no stress attitude keeps him fit. When quizzed about meditation, the actor cited a different take on the word, saying “I make it a point to help at least one person daily in whatever way possible.
To help someone in need gives me mental peace and that’s meditation for me.” He also advised viewers to take care of the parents as that’s the most important duty of an individual the star stated.
When asked how he plans to take forward the legacy of Rajesh Khanna? The actor humbly said “I am too petty for that”. “However, my son can take my legacy forward,” said Akshay, who wants his son to complete graduation and pursue his dream.
