Akshay Kumar

The Ever Charged & Power Packed khiladi

- 

He is ruling the box office with almost all of his movies getting into the 100 crore club and ruling hearts with doing films that gives a message to people, and make them really introspect. In a very subtle way, his films like Pad Man, or Toilet: Ek Prem Katha are changing people’s mindset and age old societal norms. He is the only ‘Kumar’ in the industry who has been awarded a ‘Padma Shri’. Akshay Kumar, while in a free flowing conversation with Harsha Prerna, gave us insight about how he maintains his drool worthy physique, his upcoming projects and a lot of tech trivia, obviously!

ex:We all know your hard line disciplines, in fact, we were waiting for a 6A.M. call time, & fortunately you gave us an extra 2 hours of sleep. What keeps you going every morning without hitting the snooze button?

In all honesty, I don’t even have an alarm clock. I tell myself what time I need to wake up, I trust my instincts to the point that a Snooze Button has never existed in my life. Don’t ask me how?! I always thought it was because I look forward to the day that’s why I’ve always been so eager to start it. I sleep, as much as I need it, kinda slows me down, there are so many tracks running through my head, I like to get up early so I can sort out everything that means something to me.

ex: In your fitness regime, does fitness tracker or any other tech have a role to play?

Fortunately, enough for me, I like it old school, a blackboard full of reps & exercises, & a bit of chalk to tick them off along the way. I don’t want to be on my phone any more than I already am, I still want to be normal despite how much or how far technology has taken us. “Simple is as Simple does.”
