Akshay Kumar: 'You haven't lived until you've done stunts!'

Akshay Kumar has said he loves performing his own stunts in action films.

The actor can currently be seen in action thriller Rowdy Rathore opposite Sonakshi Sinha.

He told The Times of India: "Action Dad, Action Hero, Action Man - these are the only titles I've ever wanted in my life. I would be unbearable, and bored, if I wasn't given the opportunity to push my body to its limits on a regular basis. I haven't felt this alive since shooting Rowdy Rathore.

"There's something very personal and thrilling about doing my own stunts. I'm addicted to the fear and adrenaline. I don't want anyone to try these film stunts at home, but I do know that one hasn't lived until one has greeted their fears with a twinkle in their eyes!"

Kumar revealed recently he wants to take on more villainous roles on screen.

He was recently gifted a Harley Davidson by his Desi Boyz co-star John Abraham.
