Dr. Khiladi Kumar

Though superstar Akshay (Khiladi) Kumar's year's first release TASHAN couldn't show any 'Tashan' at Box office but he did walk away with all the praises for his fantastic performance as usual.

The 'Khiladi' already has his hands full with esteem projects like Vipul Shah's SINGH IS KINNG, Warner Bros.'s CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA, Nagesh Kukunoor's EIGHT BY TEN and Sajid Nadiadwala's KAMBAKKTH ISHQ as of now. And very soon he will be seen anchoring an action reality show 'Fear Factor-Khatron Ke Khiladi' on a new channel - Colors, with as many as 13 gorgeous ladies from Bollywood.

And if this was not enough there's one more feather in the crown waiting for Akshay Kumar in the form of a Doctorate. Akki will be bestowed an honorary doctorate by the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada. It is heard that the University will honour Akshay on May 9. Akshay now has joined the league of honorary doctorate personalities like Yash Chopra, Amitabh Bachchan, Shabana Azmi and Shilpa Shetty, who were conferred similar kind of honorary doctorates from foreign Universities in the past.

So, now Akshay Khiladi Kumar with a preceding 'Dr.' added to the name.
