That patriotic fervor runs in Akshay Kumar's blood is not in doubt. When a TV news channel asked him to feature in a special programme for the armed forces, he was more than enthusiastic.
Akshay went to the Ferozepur border in Punjab for NDTV's "Jai Jawan" programme and spent one-and-a-half days with the troops.
Akshay was extremely touched by the experience.
"Whenever I go outdoor for shoots for even 10 days, I start missing my wife (Twinkle) and son (Aarav). But these brave hearts stay away from home and families for months and years at a stretch. I wonder how they bear it. There's no doubt that they are tough from outside, but they are much more strong within," he commented.
Akshay also played games like tug-of-war and volleyball with the troops.
"At lunch and dinner, they served Punjabi food and whatever was served to the jawans was served to me. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and hospitality," he said.
