The 14th season of Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) is set to come to a close soon. The final week begins with Akshay Kumar joined by Prakash Singh, former DG, BSF, and DGP UP & DGP Assam, Patron of Indian Police Foundation, on the hot seat. Talking about how the Khiladi Kumar does dangerous stunts without opting for a body double, actor-host Amitabh Bachchan recalled a film in which Kumar played his son. “Amitji shared that for a scene in which Akshay’s character has to set himself on fire, he refused to use a duplicate and did the stunt himself. Amitji had to watch Akshay from a distance, but couldn’t due to the dangerous stunt,” reveals a source.

On the episode, Bachchan took the opportunity to ask Kumar how he manages to perform such risky stunts. Kumar replied, “I don’t call myself an actor first, I call myself a stuntman. I have been doing this all my life, and this is possible due to the martial art training and the sports I have played in my life. I have kept myself agile. Even today, I try to do as much as I can for my stunts.”
