Bollywood star Akshay Kumar recently shared insights about his son Aarav Kumar’s ambitions in life, revealing that the 23-year-old is steering away from films and the family production house. Speaking to ABP News, the actor shed light on Aarav’s studies, discipline, and career choices.
Twinkle Khanna: The Real Disciplinarian
Akshay described his role in parenting, emphasising that he is more of a friend than a strict father. “I am not strict, that job belongs to my wife, Twinkle. She is very serious and keeps us three kids, me, Nitara and Aarav, in line,” he told ABP News.
He added, “I am more like a friend to my son. He is 23 now and has grown up very fast. He is studying at university and is deeply involved in his studies. He has no bad habits and is more like Twinkle because she also studies a lot.”
Aarav Has No Interest in Films or Production
Akshay elaborated on his son’s career choices, making it clear that Aarav does not wish to join films or take over the family production house. “He doesn’t want to come in films. He told me straight, ‘Dad mere ko nahi aana’ (Dad, I don’t want to come),” Akshay shared.
“He wants to remain in fashion and become a designer. He is learning fashion at the moment and is happy in that life. I want him to come into films, but I am also happy with his decision,” the actor added.
The actor also revealed a special birthday lesson he shared with Aarav, writing a handwritten note about patience. “I wrote him a letter which said, ‘Your father has run around a lot in many scenes in films. I have done a lot of running while shooting too, but the keyword is patience. Everything in life should not be like two-minute noodles. You can’t get everything instantly. Slow fire is much better than a two-minute noodle,’” he said.
This advice reflects Akshay’s approach to life, valuing perseverance and the long-term process over instant gratification.
Aarav’s Life in London
Aarav moved to London at the age of 15 and has largely stayed away from the limelight since then. Currently, he is pursuing a degree in fashion design, and his father seems fully supportive of his choices.
Akshay Kumar’s Current Work
On the professional front, Akshay was last seen in Jolly LLB 3, starring alongside Arshad Warsi. The film has been receiving positive reviews from critics and audiences alike and is reportedly inching closer to the Rs 100 crore mark at the box office.
Akshay Kumar’s chat about Aarav shows a more modern way of parenting, where kids are encouraged to follow what they love, even if it’s not what the family expects. Fans might still hope to see Aarav on the big screen one day, but for now, he’s happily carving his own path in fashion, with his famous parents cheering him on all the way.
