Many actors have spoken about Akshay Kumar’s discipline and commitment to fitness. In a recent interaction, Vivek Oberoi shared his experience of witnessing Akshay’s rigorous workout routine. Vivek recalled how Khiladi Kumar once invited him for a workout at 4:30 in the morning. He also shared a humorous incident when Akshay left his guests in the dining room and went off to sleep at his usual time.

Speaking to Entertainment Live, Vivek recounted the time he worked out with Akshay. “Akshay Kumar has a heart of gold. He is truly committed. One day, he asked me to join him for a workout. He said, ‘What are you doing tomorrow? Come work out with me.’ I asked him what time, and he replied, ‘4:30.’ So I said, ‘You mean 4:30 in the evening, right?’ But he corrected me, saying, ‘No, 4:30 in the morning!’ I agreed and went to work out with him. He had set up monkey bars and all kinds of equipment. He was jumping, climbing, hanging, doing somersaults. Then he asked me to climb a coconut tree. He’s incredibly fitness-oriented, a total fitness freak. He’s truly inspirational,” Vivek shared.

The Saathiya actor also recalled a funny moment when Akshay left him and Riteish Deshmukh during dinner at his house. “Akshay is so disciplined that one evening, we were having dinner at his place, and as soon as the clock struck 9:30 pm, he went upstairs. We thought he was just going to the washroom, but he never returned. We kept waiting for him until 11 pm, only for his wife, Twinkle Khanna, to come and tell us, ‘You guys should leave now. He’s already gone to sleep!’ That’s how disciplined he is. Hats off to him,” Vivek said, laughing.

On the professional front, Akshay hasn’t had the best run at the box office recently. His last few films—Khel Khel Mein, Sarfira, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, and Mission Raniganj—didn’t perform well. However, the actor has a promising lineup of films in the pipeline, including Singham Again, Sky Force, Jolly LLB 3, Welcome To The Jungle, Shankara, Hera Pheri 3, and more.
