Akshay always eager for more action

We may not have seen Akshay Kumar in an action role on the silver screen for a long time. But the actor has been honing his martial arts skills on regular basis.

Just after the release of Jaaneman last year, Akshay had said in an interview that he would be going for an image makeover. He wanted to do action movies again but before that he wanted to get back in shape and lose the extra weight.

Today, the actor has already begun to show glimpses of the makeover he had planned back then. He is slimmer and fitter.

And recently, while preparing for a soft-drink advertisement, Akshay learnt new forms of martial arts called Parko and Yamakuzi under the guidance of two experts, Danielle and Jennifer.

The ad, already on air, shows Akshay hopping from one building to another with nimble agility. His action and stunts in the ad are pretty impressive given the fact that not much special effects were used in it.

Personally, Akshay has never liked the use of special effects in action scenes. He believes in putting his own physical skills and limits to test. Akshay already knows Ju Jitsu, Aikido and Karate quite well.
