When Akshay Kumar revealed son Aarav shops second-hand clothes

Akshay Kumar, one of Bollywood’s biggest and highest-earning stars, recently shared humbling revelations about his family life, particularly his children, Aarav and Nitara. Aarav, seen at Mumbai airport carrying a stylish handbag, has been praised for challenging traditional gender norms. During an appearance on Shikhar Dhawan’s chat show “Dhawan Karenge,” Akshay revealed that Aarav, who is studying at a university in London, has no interest in pursuing a career in Hindi cinema. Aarav left home at 15, valuing independence and practicality—doing his own laundry, cooking, and shopping for second-hand clothes. Despite his striking resemblance to his father and a shared passion for martial arts, Aarav maintains a low profile, sparking curiosity about his future. When not at school, he mingles with fellow B-town star kids and enjoys a vibrant social life.
