Akshay back in action films with a bang

ACTION HERO: His four-year-old son wanted Akshay to return to action films.

Mumbai: He has done it all, from romantic dramas to comedies. But this year Akshay Kumar comes in full circle and returns to his favourite genre- action.

He is back on the screen with action film Tashan, and it is all because of his four-year-old son Aarav.

"My son told me to do it when he was young I stopped doing action. And when he is four he wants me to do it. He also loves action and wants to see his dad flying around. I am doing Chandnichok To China, which is an autobiography of mine," says Akshay.

So the obvious question is, if not an actor then what would Akshay have been?

"I would still be a struggling actor. I wanted to open a martial art school but the government couldn't provide me one or two acre of land. But that was my dream," says Akshay.

So given that action really interests the actor, he could probably give opening a martial arts school a second thought.
