When asked Akshay the reason why he started learning martial arts, he first questioned saying, “Should I tell the truth or should I lie?” When requested him to tell the truth, he said, “If I say the truth then I started learning martial arts because of a girl. There was one friend of mine who used to learn Karate and impress her all the time. I was left behind and I said I will also have to learn now and I’ll also do it. I started learning it and then I started loving martial arts more than the girl. That is what happened. It became a habit and eventually it was fun. That is how I started and then it just went on and on.”
