Actors tend to acquire airs. And the ones who are successful are worse. Thanks to his self-effacing temperament, the likes of Akshaye Khanna help in ridding people of such perceptions. Not only is the actor a delight to chat with - he has first-hand knowledge of almost everything under the sun. He is also by far the most honest actor around.

He never minces words. Poor guy, his stand-offish stance is often misconstrued as conceit. All those who`ve had a chance of interacting with him would vouch for his child-like quality. In fact his affable charm is all the more endearing when he decides to be a little explanatory about himself as some scribes discovered to their delight. When one of them asked him to name his hobbies, a defiant Khanna looked offended at being addressed like a child but soon recovered his composure and said: "I am not into stamp-collection or comics. I don`t even have a hobby to name any. I behave and believe in being as normal and natural as I can."

In the same breath, he also mentioned that he enjoyed `sports, movies and reading a bit` lest he should be misunderstood.Do we need to stress more why this Khanna is not only a `normal` being who acts most naturally on screen but remains a natural charmer too!
