Akshay Kumar on, ‘Koffee With Karan’, had recently stated that he could outcast the three Khans (Salman, Shah Rukh, Aamir) if they don’t stop smoking. Reciprocating in a similar gesture, Salman Khan crowned Akshay as the most deserving actor from the current lot. “Akshay is one of the most talented actors we have. I have worked with him. He is phenomenal. I think if there is anyone who has had a growth in his acting career as a performer then it is only Akshay Kumar. We all remain stagnant. He is the only one who has kept growing. Akki is one of the most hardworking and dedicated actors that we have,” says Salman Khan, showering heaps of praise on Akshay Kumar.
