Akshay Kumar's Son Aarav Kumar: Carving His Own Path in Fashion Industry

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar recently opened up about his son Aarav Kumar, who turned 21 last year, and shared that he is unlike typical star kids in the industry. Despite coming from a privileged background, Aarav has no interest in pursuing a career in acting like his father. Instead, he has a passion for fashion and wants to carve a niche for himself in that industry.

Akshay proudly revealed in a candid interview that his son leads a simple life, preferring to buy clothes from thrift stores and cook his own meals. During the inaugural episode of cricketer Shikhar Dhawan’s new talk show, Dhawan Karenge, Akshay expressed his contentment with the way he and his wife Twinkle Khanna have raised Aarav. He described Aarav as a very down-to-earth and simple young man, unlike his daughter who has a penchant for fashionable clothes.

Despite being surrounded by luxury and fame, Aarav has chosen to pursue his own interests and follow his own path. Akshay shared, "We never imposed our choices on him. He has always been interested in fashion and made it clear that he doesn't want to follow in his parents' footsteps by becoming an actor.

When he informed me about his decision, I told him to pursue what makes him happy. It's his life, and he should live it on his own terms." Aarav's independence and self-reliance were evident at a young age when he decided to leave home at the age of 15 to study abroad.

Although Akshay was initially apprehensive about his son's decision, he respected Aarav's desire for independence and allowed him to embark on his journey. Akshay reminisced, "Aarav is currently studying at a university in London. He chose to move out and live alone at a young age.

While I was against it, I understood that he was determined to pursue his education. I left home at 14, so I couldn't hold him back from exploring the world." Aarav's responsible nature extends beyond his academic pursuits, as he takes care of his own chores, including cooking, laundry, and cleaning.

He has a frugal approach to life and prefers to shop at second-hand stores like Thrifty to avoid wastage and excessive spending. Akshay commended his son's values and praised him for his maturity and independence at such a young age. Meanwhile, on the professional front, Akshay Kumar has an exciting lineup of films in the pipeline.

He will be starring in Sarfira, directed by Sudha Kongara and featuring a stellar cast including Paresh Rawal, Radhika Madan, and Seema Biswas. Additionally, Akshay is set to appear in a slew of highly anticipated projects such as Singham Again, Khel Khel Mein, Sky Force, Welcome to the Jungle, Jolly LLB 3, Hera Pheri 3, and Bhagat Singh. Despite his busy schedule and numerous professional commitments, Akshay takes pride in his family and the values he instills in his children.

He believes in giving them the freedom to pursue their passions and make their own choices, even if they diverge from the conventional paths of success typically associated with Bollywood star kids. Aarav's determination to forge his own identity and lead a simple, purposeful life is a testament to the values of integrity and independence that Akshay cherishes both in his personal and professional life. In a world where fame and fortune often dictate one's path, Akshay Kumar and his son Aarav stand out as shining examples of authenticity and individuality.

As Aarav continues to chart his own course in the fashion world, guided by his passion and values, he serves as an inspiration to young individuals seeking to stay true to themselves amidst societal expectations. Akshay's unwavering support and pride in his son's choices reflect a father's love and respect for his son's autonomy and individuality, setting a heartwarming example for families everywhere.
