New Delhi [India], September 8 (ANI): In a candid chat with British adventurer Bear Grylls during the upcoming episode of Discovery Channel's 'Into The Wild,' superstar Akshay Kumar said that his son Aarav prefers to stay away from the limelight.
"My son is very different. I mean, he just doesn't want to tell anyone that he's my son. He wants to be away from the limelight. He wants to have his own identity. That's what the whole thing and I understand it. So, I let him be the way he wants to," the 52-year-old actor said during the show.
He also went on to talk about his father and said that he wishes that his son also gets all the values that his father had taught him.
"He's (Akshay's father) the only influence I have in my life and I've followed all his rules and all the things that he has taught me. And I hope my son gets that," he said.
