Akshay Kumar rarely speaks about his children — son Aarav and daughter Nitara — in public, preferring to keep their lives away from the limelight. However, he made an exception on cricketer Shikhar Dhawan’s brand new talk show, Dhawan Karenge on Jio Cinema. During the interaction, Akshay revealed that Aarav doesn’t want to be a part of films and wants to pursue a career in fashion.
Speaking on the show, Akshay shared how he didn’t want Aarav to leave home at the age of 15 to study abroad. He said, “My son Aarav is studying at the university in London. He left home at the age of 15. He was always fond of studying and wanted to stay alone. It was his decision to move even though I didn’t want him to go. However, I could not stop him because I left my home at the age of 14.”
Khiladi Kumar lauded his son for being grounded, doing all the household chores himself, and avoiding splurging on expensive clothes. He said, “He does his own laundry, he is a good cook, does the utensils and doesn’t even want to buy expensive clothes. In fact, he goes to a second-hand store, Thrifty, to buy clothes because he doesn’t believe in wastage.”
