To bring religion into everything is not done: Akshay Kumar

block
For many, Akshay Kumar has become the face of films dealing with social issues and his last two movies – Toilet: Ek Prem Katha and PadMan have only strengthened his position as an actor who is consciously rallying towards making content-driven cinema. Khiladi Kumar also doesn’t refrain from speaking his mind regarding a lot of things around the country’s socio-political scenario.
The National Award winning actor launched the trailer of Nanak Shah Fakir on Wednesday. The film spreads the message of ‘Ik Onkar’ (there’s but One God), and Akshay shared his view on the belief and lauded the producers of the film.
“This film is close to my heart as it shows the teachings of Guru Saheb. Seeing the basic premise of the film why wouldn’t I back it? I always say there is only one god you should follow, whom you believe in,” the star said.
Akshay also shared his views on what according to him is a true religion. He said, “I believe in humanity, I just believe in helping others, that is the only religion I follow.” He further added that Bollywood is one of the most secular industries in the country.
