Akshay Kumar on his struggle days
Last month, In a conversation with Desk, Kumar spoke about his initial days of struggle. He said, “We were 24 people living in the same house in Chandni Chowk. We all would sleep in the same room. In the morning, when we woke up for exercise, everyone would jump over each other to get out.”
Kumar spoke about shifting to Mumbai from Delhi and living in the Sion Koliwada on a 100 rupees rental house. “I swear to God, there wasn’t a single day where we did not smile or laugh. Now that we have money, sometimes we feel a bit sad, but at that time, there was nothing to be sad about; we would have dal chawal, jeera aloo, aloo gobhi, bhindi, we would eat all of this, and we were happy,” he added.
