Bollywood star Akshay Kumar is busy promoting his comedy-drama Khel Khel Mein, which stars Ammy Virk, Taapsee Pannu, Vaani Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Aditya Seal and Pragya Jaiswal and is directed by Mudassar Aziz. In a recent interview, Akshay addressed allegations that he is diplomatic in his public statements.
He explained that his approach is to maintain a balanced perspective and focus on not hurting anyone’s feelings. Speaking to Galatta India, he said, “People say I am diplomatic, yes I am diplomatic because I want to keep my word when I tell you something. I don’t want to hurt you, even though I know so many things, I don’t want to hurt you. I don’t want to say things that might give other people an impression that you are that kind of person.”
Akshay also compares his wife Twinkle Khanna with the fact that she is always ready to be judged, while he is someone who knows things but does not want to hurt anyone and hence remains diplomatic.
He added: “I know my wife, she’s very open about it. When she watches a movie, she tells the producer it’s a crappy movie and I always tell him to keep calm and don’t do that. I know everything she says could be right, but there are always people like that. I come from that world and I don’t want to hurt anyone.”
On the work front, Akshay Kumar will next be seen in Sky Force, Singham Again, Kannappa, Jolly LLB 3, Welcome To The Jungle, Shakara, Hera Pheri 3 and Vedat Marathe Veer Daudle Saat. He also has a special cameo in Rajkummar Rao and Shraddha Kapoor’s recently released horror comedy Stree 2.
