In a lighthearted moment on Wheel of Fortune India, Bollywood star Akshay Kumar took a nostalgic trip down memory lane, sharing a hilarious story from his college days that left everyone in splits. The actor candidly opened up about a youthful crush and how his grand romantic gesture hilariously backfired.

Akshay Kumar recalls a college incident


Recalling the incident, Akshay said that around 40 years ago, during his college days, he was deeply fond of a girl and wanted to impress her in a dramatic fashion. “About 40 years ago, when I was in college, I was very fond of a girl. I learned a song for her, and I had a friend who knew how to play the guitar. I went outside her house and sang while he played the guitar,” he shared.



However, the serenade did not quite go as planned. Instead of winning her heart, Akshay and his friend found themselves in an unexpected situation. With impeccable comic timing, he revealed, “After I sang, do you know what happened? All her neighbours beat us. We both got beaten.” His honest and humorous confession had the audience bursting into laughter.

Reflecting on the experience, Akshay jokingly implied that sometimes even the most sincere efforts can go terribly wrong. The anecdote not only showcased his trademark wit but also offered fans a rare glimpse into his life before stardom. The superstar, known today for his action packed roles and charismatic screen presence, proved that he too has faced awkward and embarrassing moments like everyone else.
