News: Akshay Kumar Talks Strong Work Ethic Leads To Success!

Akshay Kumar has revealed his secret to make it big in Bollywood - copying everday people and pure hard work! 

AK whose latest film Housefull did really well at box offices around the world, said he's made it big in Indian cinema because he mimics everyday people and is an introverted workaholic.

"The expressions that you see are mostly stolen from the faces of common people. Normally mimicry is done of big actors, but it is fun to mimic those people who have no connection with this industry. So I copy common people without copyright," IANS quotes Kumar as saying.

"I travel a lot. Recently, I got stuck at the Frankfurt airport because of the volcano ashes incident. I had to wait long. So I sat down and looked around and people have something to offer. It's amazing just to register that and sometimes while playing a character, suddenly that comes out and you start acting like that person.

"I am a very introverted and serious person. Even if I joke around, that's limited to a very few people I am comfortable with. They are my school and college friends. I do have a couple of friends from the industry as well."

The 42-year-old added: "I am a workaholic. I work 24 hours. I have only one business, that's the film business. I don't have any film school degree. Whatever I have learnt is through my experience."
