Akshay Kumar Recalls Bike Accident With RTO Officer In Bangkok, Reveals He Was 'Sacred'

Akshay Kumar recently appeared on cricketer Shikhar Dhawan's new chat show Dhawan Karenge, where he shared a formative experience from his time in Bangkok that taught him the value of humility. Akshay recounted how his father, recognising his lack of interest in studies, facilitated his move to Bangkok at a young age. He appreciated the country's culture, noting, "From the minute you leave the plane, everyone bows to you with hands joined. It's a beautiful gesture, taken from our culture and followed so politely there."

Akshay described a pivotal incident that highlighted the importance of humility: "While driving, I accidentally collided with an RTO officer's bike. We both fell, and I was scared. I immediately apologized and bowed to him. The officer helped me up and advised me to drive more carefully. This incident taught me that humbling yourself gives you the resilience to navigate any challenge."
