Akshay tells the true story of his arrest drama

Finally Akshay Kumar has joined the bandwagon of elite stars who blog to connect with their fans. Here's what Akki has to say to his fans in his latest entry:

Hey Everyone… It's me the new Robin Hood of India, I rob from the rich (producers) and give to the poor (my staff), Hehe!! I'm kidding, seriously, it's comments like these that get me in trouble ;o)…

So did you guys read about my ever so exciting capture by the police, and my wife's surrender story over my 'Unbuttoning incident'… My life sounds like a scene out of C.S.I Miami right now I swear, this year is definitely going down in the book of 'Who framed Akshay Kumar'…

The STORY goes something like, I land back in Bombay and within seconds I've had our famous press calling up and reporting that I've been captured by the police after running away coz of my supposedly "obscene Levi's ramp walk", and my wife has apparently surrendered herself out of fear for her husbands captivity.

Listen I understand journalists need to sell their papers but guys you can't make a fool out of your readers, that story was worse than a 'C' grade drama serial...

When all that really happened was I came back and drove to the Police station myself, signed some papers, joined my hands, wished them all a pleasant day and went home to my family, it was as boring as that… But instead I've been made to feel like the Bad Boy criminal of Bombay for the first time in my life...

Now I just need to get a pair of green tights find a bow and arrow, change my name to Robin Hood and I'll officially be the loved outlaw…

Haha and do you know what I later found out, the guy that placed this ridiculous complaint against me, has actually filed numerous other pointless case's against other celebrities also. Well I hope he's happy and has enjoyed his fair share of desperate attention, was it really worth it man…

Now with all that nonsense behind, I want to talk to you about something very serious.

Some of you may already know but one of Bollywood's best make-up artists has just been through a spine chilling horrific experience, I don't want to delve into it too much out of pure respect for her. But her ordeal should be a wake up call for all of us.

Bless her, she was tortured so badly, I was choked up so much when I heard what had happened to her, the whole industry should be thankful she is still here with us now. This brave lady has literally faced death in front of her very eyes, and she is such a wonderful woman, so nice, she'd never hurt anyone.

See, life's not safe, it's not fair, it's scary and unpredictable. People of India please start being more careful, if I read one more rape or murder case in out city I think I'll cry..

Why can't Mumbai adopt something from Singapore! The crime rate is so incredibly low there, and it's only because of the "Death Sentence". It's given for a lot of severe crimes, no joke, people are even too scared to spit on the street there for fear of being arrested…

Now I can't change the law, but I can advise all of you, especially the women of India to please learn self defence, murderers don't train to become killers, they just get up and commit sinful acts, but you yourselves can train to kill if necessary if you are ever faced with such vicious humans…

Dear God I'm not saying carry a gun, I just think you should all know how to defend yourselves and run before it's too late and your loved ones are having to explain to your children or your partner that you suffered coz you didn't know how to fight back…

I didn't learn martial arts to be some famous dude, I trained because the discipline was something I didn't want to live life without… Tonight please think about how you're going to protect yourselves and your family, take care, and live life like you care about it…

Love and Prayers to all of you

Akshay…

Akki blog is fine. Eventhough I agree about women learning self-defense how about we stress more on the crimes of rapists instead of putting all the burden on women? She has to explain to family, friends and children but what about them? While I feel sad for Akki's friend instead of blaming her for knowing how to defend herself maybe he should ask the government to work more on the laws. The police treats the raped women as criminals and lets the rapists walk the streets.

Hope the woman is safer now.

Yes, the self-defence is good to know, but it may not work all the time unfortunetly. More consideration should be put on the government to improve its' laws. India is not alone in making a raped victim into a villan, while the rapist just runs off free ji. Just a few months ago in the USA there was a court case where the rapist was free of all charges. Here as well the woman was turned into the culprit. The case was that the woman was going to be raped, and the rapist asked if she wants a condom or not, and she said yes to it. So the judge said that it was IMPLIED consent. The law looks at this implied consent and the rapist was free to go.

The governments need to improve the laws and not get involved in stupid loop holes. Being an Indian, I feel so ashamed sometimes that I belong to a culture where hypocrits are at their best ji. I mean, at one hand these people will pray to MAA Laxmi, Durga etc, and even acknowledge that a woman is Her roop. However, on the other hand, these same people will degrade women to such low proximity.
It's great Akshay is telling woman to learn self defense, but self defense can be just as worthless when the government is like this ji.
For me sometimes, I feel that women have not progressed in this world, rather have gone the opposite way. You read history, and you see that a woman's status was so much higher than. Just read about women in cultures such as Aboriginals, African, and even Indian, and you want to question the progress achieved by woman. We still feel content in saying we have accomplished our goals in 'a man's world'. Why do we need to say that, do we not live in a society where equality is for everyone; no one gender is superior?
You can go anywhere in the world, and the gender bias is there. It's not about just one culture. It's just more evident in one culture than the other b/c that one culture actually doesn't do the gender bias "under the counter". Every country needs a government where empowerment is not just said, but is practiced upon. We need a government that works to achieving a safer place for all to live, not some bloggers who will mention that changes are needed now and then. They'll say it today, and feel so strongly about it, but tomorrow they'll go back to their lives.
Sorry for this long rant, needed it out of my system ji. Don't even know if I made sense (it always makes sense in my head). Anyways, sorry.

guesswho, simran... very well said... 👏👏👏
simran i get what you are trying to imply... but as they say, with good come the bad... with roses, there will be thorns... so it's a counter balance... but yeah, the crime rates have gone up really high... and it's kind of disturbing, actually...
though, some words of wisdom... but i feel a blog can only do so much... and it would have been better if some focus was also on the authorities as well...
but i like his advice... most women should enroll in self defense classes... it may not work always but hopefully, it'll in most cases... 👏👏👏
nyways... he is just writing what's going on in his mind... blog is more like a diary... you write what you feel... and i don't think most people write it so they can 'boast' of themselves... you write what's on your mind...
nyways, it is funny how some comments are considered 'honest', while others 'boasting'... 😊
