AKSHAY KUMAR: I'M KHILADI OF KHILADI!

After so many years, will Khiladi again win the box office?

If you're a true player so you can be a player till the end. It is the matter of self confidence, in which age doesn't matter. Khiladi doesn't mean you do actions and beat the enemy. If you're fresh and you are perfect as body wise so you can be a Khiladi whole time. I only do on what my fans demand, I don't think about myself neither I do things for my priority.

What improvement did you feel from Abbas Mastan's 'Khiladi' to the 'Khiladi 786' of Asish R Mohan?

My journey is full of success. I can't think ever that an ordinary boy will be liked by the whole world and he'll have so much fans. The proudest thing in my mind whether it would be my mother, my wife or my children, they all appreciate me. God is almighty on me but I must say hard work really pays. You succeeds and fails in film industry but only that man can be a khiladi who maintains his lost. I always think positive. I have had many problems in life and I say I've faced worst but I tried my best. It has been 21 years since I did Khiladi and now I've done Khiladi 786. During all this time, I discovered myself and my fans love made me strong from inside. When I did Abbas Mastan's Khiladi so I encouraged myself and today I say Khiladi 786 is the gift to my worldwide fans.

Did you agree with the script?

Film was picturized like it was written in the script. I didn't make any changes in any scene of the film and we all worked hard for this movie.

What is the overall music of the film and what's your favorite song?

Himesh has done his best and he has made every song very beautifully. And I do hope every music lover will like the film's music. Although, my favorite song is 'Saari Saari Raat' which is a soft romantic song.

We have heard that you weren't interested in doing anymore Khiladi's series film, so how did you get agreed to do it?

The reason behind I didn't want to this Khiladi because there wasn't any new thing in this one. All the films of Khiladi series was strong and I didn't want this one to be the weakest one. But when Asish and Himesh convinced me and I realized myself that which trend is liked by audience after Rowdy Rathore so I persuaded myself to do this one.

Wasn't it a big challenge to work with a new director?

Asish R Mohan must have directed a film first time but he has been the most brilliant assistant of Rohit Shetty. We all know Asish directed some of the most comedy scene in Golmal series. In my opinion, Asish is a commendable director. He impressed me from the very first day of shooting.

786 is the most most important number for Muslims, have you cared about not hurting Muslim's religion in the film?

We know that Muslims connect this numbers and pray to ALLAH and it is very important number in Muslims world. We also have many theaters where Muslims are the reason of our film to be super hit. After all our neighborhood country Pakistan has become the important market for us. So any of us can't think of hurting Muslims or anyone's religion by any cause because we all believe in religion.

You've also done T.V show 'Khatron Ke Khiladi' besides films, do you have intentions to conduct the next season of this show?

I wasn't able to do the third season of this show unfortunately but I must try to conduct season 4. Though, they are not starting the show yet, when I'll be offered so I must do it.

Tell me about your future projects, I've heard that you're doing a Hollywood film like Anil Kapoor, Irfan Kha and Amitabh?

These two years are so tough for me. I'm completing 'Special Chabeez' after completing 'Khiladi 786'. Beside it I'm also doing 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbai part 2' and 'Naam Hai Boss'. If I talk about Hollywood so I can't work there because I'm busy here in Bollywood. I can't think of working there until I finish here.

You've already worked with Asin, what improvements have you found in her now?

She is a hard working girl. She is so calm and she signed her movie after a year gap. When I worked with her in Houseful 2 so I realized she has real potential. Hindi cinema always seeks for those girls who have are good in dancing and they are sharp in dialogue delivery. Asin belongs from South India film industry but she is improving herself. You'll watch her as a real Hindi heroin in 'Khiladi 786'.
