From the time he started off with Saugandh, he never had to think how he would establish himself as a hero. All the leading ladies who were his contemporaries made sure that they could sway their booty with this handsome hunk. His height and his style made him the numero uno choice of ladies like Shilpa Shetty. Being one of the tallest and fittest ladies of B-town, Shilpa ffound it comfortable to work with Akshay. Films like Main Khiladi Tu Anari and Dhadkan went ahead to create one of the best on screen pairs of all times. It was even rumored that they were dating and finally the couple broke up in 2000.
Akshay was seen with another lady who was well known for her dolled up looks, Ayesha Jhulka. They created a sizzling pair in Khiladi and Waqt Hamara Hai. But the one lady who went ahead to create history with this Judo, Karate and Taekwando champ was Raveena Tandon in Mohra. Quite a few films followed and so did rumors about their relationship that got a lot of attention.
Karishma Kapoor, Kajol and Preity Zinta too did quite a few films and they exploded at the box office. But it was Twinkle Khanna who went full stead ahead to shoot the Khiladi Series with Akshay and then tie the knot with him.
But marriage did not stop him from romancing the new girls who made their way into the industry. In Andaaz, Akshay tackled Lara Dutta and Priyanka Chopra together and his manhood became more pronounced with Aitraaz where Kareena Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra came down to cat fights for this hunk. It did not stop at that…. In Garam Masala, three sexy air hostesses fell for this photographer and Heyy Babyy saw the lady killer foxing many women till he finally got nailed by Vidya Balan. Deepika seems to be the new girl who is ready to take this athlete by the horns. After their oriental debut in Chandni Chowk to China, the duo will come together in Housefull again with Jiah Khan and Lara Dutta to join the mad rush.
But the beauty that seems to compliment Akshay most in the recent times is Katrina Kaif. Humko Deewana Kar Gaye, Welcome, Sing is Kinng and De Dana Dan reinstated the chemistry of the pair. But if you thought that Akshay is only at ease with the desi girls, then you might be getting your statistics slightly wrong. In Kambakht Ishq she swept Denise Richards off her feet and in he did shake a leg with Kylie Minogue.
Akshay has come alive as a man who writes his own destiny and we sure are waiting for more ladies to get killed by him!!!
This is a hunk who, I think, started the trend of being the "phoenix" ,i.e rising from the ashes of being mediocre performers and shooting to stardom followed by Saif and Arshad Warsi to name a few. A man from nowhere suddenly rushed in to give the Khans and the Roshans a run for the money. Here's a thumbs up for the man !!!!!!
