Akshay has turned 50 this year and he is one of the fittest actors in Bollywood. Recently, during an interaction with a leading the actor spoke at length about how he feels young.
He stated, "To feel young, one must act young. We are only ever as old as we feel, so I make sure that I still live like the world is my oyster, and [have] a smile that's as hungry for success and happiness as the day I started 26 years ago."
He further said, "I'm proud of how I've carried myself, how disciplined I am about my workouts and, most importantly, my health." And also said, "But these young [actors] are the ones giving us old men a run for our money, not the other way round. When I entered the industry, no one knew what a six-pack was now everyone has it."
Akshay agreed to the fact that actresses have a shelf life. He said, "Unfortunately, actresses are treated like time bombs, which I feel is completely unfair. I'm beyond proud of all [those] who have not let the 10-year shelf life have any significance for their careers and have stormed past [that deadline] with pride."
On the work front, Akshay will next be seen in Padman. The film is a biopic and also stars Sonam Kapoor and Radhika Apte in the lead. Directed by R Balki and produced by Twinkle Khanna, the film is set to hit the screens on January 26, 2018.
