There is more
to Akshay Kumar than his body building. Ask his producers. They
are full of praise for his professionalism. For his integrity. His
directors can’t stop talking about how hard he works over his
scenes. His sense of commitment.
Ask Shabana
Azmi, United Nation Ambassador on population. Recently when the
Population Council and Alliance for Reproductive Health and Development
wanted to do a public service advertisement for the World Population
Day, their choice zeroed in on a young and happily married actor
who would be the perfect role model to endorse the social message.
Akshay Kumar
when contacted not only immediately agreed to co-operate for a social
cause, but wholeheartedly supported the message of the public service
ad that women be included in the decision of how many kids a couple
must plan and when. His conviction comes through in the ad when
he lovingly looks at his wife Tina’s picture while mouthing
his message. The population Council and Reproduction Health Development
are truly impressed with the young actor. Here is a star who charges
exhorbitant fees for the brands he promotes, but willingly extended
himself for a worthy cause. Contrary to the general impression,
film stars are usually socially responsible and willing to extend
their support provided they are correctly guided. Akshay has made
a noble beginning and there must be others doing what’s within
their capability as well.
