He has been around for a decade but ask him to spell out the basics of acting and he would draw a blank. A good looking tall hunk, Akshay is a trained judo, taekwondo and karate expert who does his own stunts and looks pretty convincing in any action flick. What amuses his ex-girlfriends is the way he mellows down in the presence of his wife Twinkle, mother-in-law Dimple and saali Rinke.

The actor has received brickbats for his dismal performance in Dharmesh Darshan`s Haan... Maine Bhi Pyaar Kiya, particularly for his weak voice and poor dialogue delivery.It wouldn`t have affected him in the least but for wife and saasu ma. The ma-beti duo has not only been upset with his daredevil acts for his films, for which he does not use any double, but has also drilled a love for theatre into him. Now, but the thought of watching Akshay Kumar live on stage is somehow totallly undigestible. "Voice modulation classes can help you emote better," chided Dimple.

First you play up to the women, batter them, treat them like dirt, and dump them at will. The past has caught up with you, Akshay. You are at the complete mercy of the Khanna parivar and a trio of women at that.
