Mumbai, Dec 21: Akshay Kumar is truly a man of his words. After an enjoyable journeying in ‘Chandni Chowk to China’, Akki headed the ‘torch run’ as a customary practise prior to the World Winter Games. The run incidentally begins from Chandni Chowk, Delhi and touches even Shanghai, China. But, Akki is certainly unwilling to cash in on the situation fortuitously relating to his upcoming, much-anticipated flick, ‘Chandni Chowk to China’. "It`s a pleasant coincidence to begin this drive from Chandni Chowk, the place which is closest to my heart. I have been associated with Special Olympics as their brand ambassador for quite some time now and am looking forward to the torch traveling across the globe,” he said. “But, let`s not mix up pleasure with a cause here. I will talk about the film when a platform is suited for its promotion. Here we are talking about people with intellectual disabilities so let`s not trivialize it for commercial gains. We are dealing with sensitive issues here," Akki was quoted as saying. Well, after being chosen as the brand ambassador for Special Olympics in 2005, Akki has valiantly taken up the responsibility of spreading smiles and encouraging talents across the nation. With such a rare chivalry, he’s truly the ‘Kinng’ of Bollywood. “I believe all these individuals with special needs certainly deserve the same respect that other athletes get. It is a matter of pride to see them participating with great vigor and unparalleled confidence at such a global platform", adds Akshay. Well, said Akki!
