HTLS 2022: Akshay Kumar's son Aarav wants to become a fashion designer

At the Hindustan Times Leadership Summit 2022's final day on Saturday, Akshay Kumar shared some previously unknown facts about his son Aarav. He revealed that Aarav would rather be a fashion designer than be interested in movies.

Akshay was joined by Ram Charan for a conversation with Sonal Kalra, chief managing editor for entertainment and lifestyle at Hindustan Times.

While Ram Charan talked about the supportive environment that existed at his home because his father is the legendary superstar Chiranjeevi. Akshay, on the other hand, revealed how is it at his house.

Akshay said, “I was just thinking about how different it is in my home. I want to show my son films, I want to tell him about films, he doesn't want to see films. I want to put him into all that but he just doesn't want to see anything, he just wants to do his work. He wants to study or do his fashion designing.”

“So there are two ways of doing it: one, you keep it hidden or you give them so much that they don't want to do it,” he added.

Ram Charan, who was listening to him, indicated that he had to consider other areas for a possible future and that's why he briefly studied mechanical engineering. Akshay jokingly said that all he wanted to be was Bruce Lee.

After getting married in 2001, Akshay and Twinkle welcomed their first child, Aarav in 2002. The celebrity couple are also parents to daughter Nitara, who was born in 2012.

On the work front, this year, Akshay appeared in several films, including Prithviraj, Bachhan Paandey, Raksha Bandhan, and Cuttputli. None has been able to generate any significant box office collections. Action movie Ram Setu was his most recent release and it failed at the box office too.

Akshay Kumar will next be seen Selfee where he will share the screen space with Emraan Hashmi. According to reports, Akshay will play a superstar in this suspense thriller. Emraan, on the other hand, will portray a police officer who is a fan of the celebrity. The film is all set to release in February 2023.
