Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar is undoubtedly in the best phase of his life, whether it’s personal or professional. Everyone knows that he is happily married to Twinkle Khanna and is blessed with two beautiful kids, son Aarav and daughter Nitara. But, it’s no secret as well that the actor had a series of alleged love affairs with his previous co-stars like Raveena Tandon, Shilpa Shetty Kundra and one of the most shocking, with veteran actress Rekha while shooting for their film ‘Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi’ (1996).
However, recently our eyes caught upon a statement of Akshay Kumar where he had actually admitted that he loved someone and wanted to marry her. It was his first major crush and she had come in his life much before he entered the film industry. Wait! Hold on to your horses. Before you think anything else, it isn’t what you’re speculating. The first crush of Akshay Kumar was none other than his Marathi teacher in his school. (Also Read: Did you know how Rajiv Bhatia got his screen name and became Akshay Kumar?)
During the trailer launch event of a Marathi film ‘Kaul Manacha’, the actor had recalled about this as he said, “I was in the sixth grade and it was a Marathi teacher. I told a friend that I want to marry her. And the teacher caught us talking and asked my friend what I said to him… And can you believe it? That boy actually went ahead and told the teacher that I said that I loved her and wanted to marry her.”
Well, that was really a cute and hilarious childhood memory that Akki shared. But, the consequences that followed for ‘Khiladi’ Kumar then were definitely more embarrassing. Akshay’s teacher asked his parents to come and visit her in the school.
“I got punished, my parents were called and it was so embarrassing that I got rusticated for two days,” added the ‘Rustom’ actor.
Isn’t this something we all would connect with?
Quiet, resonant, and creative, he can be seen immersed in his own world, and puts in his heart and soul into the one passion that he has, Bollywood. His line for survival? Feel happy to be a part of it.
