These days are not good for Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar who has been in discussions for personal and professional life. Khiladi Kumar recently attended an interview in which he stressed the need for ‘reform’ in history books. He talked about these issues during the promotion of his new upcoming film Sky Force and made several revelations about his life and the industry. Akshay said that history books of the Indian education system should also include stories of the valor of Indian soldiers because often we get to read about personalities like Akbar and Aurangzeb, but the stories of our real heroes, whose bravery have saved the country, are missing.

During an interview with one of the media houses, Akshay said, “There are a lot of things that are not mentioned in our books. I deliberately choose characters to portray on screen who are not part of our books and make people aware about those characters. That’s what I want to do. These are all unknown heroes and they should be known by people.” He also said that people do not know about these heroes because no one explores their stories in depth.

We get to read about Akbar and Aurangzeb, but not about our heroes. Their names should also be in the books.” The actor also mentioned the brave soldiers who have received honors like Param Vir Chakra.
