Akshay Kumar has become synonyms with box office success, but the actor says he doesn't take his brand "seriously" and believes in surrendering to the director's vision. The actor, who has proved his commercial viability in action, comedy and social dramas, said there is no trick or method to his success as he learnt everything from life experiences.

"I did not go to any acting school, I did not learn anything. I learnt things from my own experiences. So there was no method used as such. I don't take myself seriously I go with the flow. I hold my director's hand and I do what he says, as he is the captain of the ship. That ship shouldn't turn out to be Titanic," Akshay said in a group interview.
