We want Akshaye to take up more films and do roles at that surprise us all the time. Ask him how he gets those interesting roles as indeed bags offer with some stimulating concepts, and he responds quite interestingly in his interaction with IANS. "I have been fortunate. (But) That's not in my hands. I have to give the credits to the people, who have made those films with me because they have not slotted me and they have given me opportunities of doing different kind of stuff (roles)."
"But I have been fortunate, lucky that variety kinds of film have been offered to me. Not ever actor is that lucky in this particular sense. So I feel fortunate," he maintained.
