Bollywood icon Akshay Kumar, juggling multiple film projects and a hectic lifestyle, stole hearts with a simple yet profound wish on the sets of ‘Wheel of Fortune,’ where he’s the charismatic host. When contestant Namita inquired about his life’s remaining desires, Akshay’s answer was refreshingly honest.
Smiling broadly, he said, ‘Spending more time with my family is my ultimate wish. I dedicate nearly 120 days a year to them, but it always seems insufficient. Between shoots and promotions, I fight to create those meaningful family moments.’
Meanwhile, Akshay’s professional slate is buzzing with ‘Bhooth Bangla,’ a horror-comedy that’s reigniting his golden partnership with Priyadarshan. Their previous ventures – think ‘Hera Pheri,’ ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa,’ ‘Bhagam Bhag,’ and more – have become cult classics. This 14-year reunion has fans eagerly awaiting the April 10 release.
The ensemble features comedy legends Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav alongside Tabu and Vamika Gabbie, promising a riot of laughs in a haunted setting. Akshay’s versatility shines through once again.
On the home front, Akshay’s life with Twinkle Khanna since their 2001 wedding, and their children Aarav (born 2002) and Nitara (2012), keeps him rooted. His words remind us that behind the superstar facade lies a devoted family man, prioritizing love over limelight.
