Five things you DIDN'T know about Akshay Kumar

The fiercely private Akshay Kumar kinda opened up on Karan Johar's red couch... An appearance on Koffee With Karan can be daunting even if you are one of the host's buddies.

Akshay had come armed with a rapid fire round for KJo and routinely reminded him of the torture he subjected his guests to. In the process, the fiercely private Akshay revealed some things about himself.
