Why Rajeev Bhatia Became Akshay Kumar

We definately know that Yusuf Khan became Dilip Kumar to gain acceptability in the Hindi film industry . Haribhai Zariwala was convinced by his friends to opt for Sanjeev Kumar . And as they say , rest is History .
The reason for Rajev Bhatia becoming Akshay Kumar is quite interesting . Any guesses ? Of course for a girl !
Long before the new , improved Akshay Kumar decided to impress his wife with his loyalty , at a time when he was still a young lad called Rajeev Bhatia , one of his ( numerous!) girlfriends dumped him for another guy called Akshay !
" I guess that was my way of reacting to the episode . Nobody knows this , but that was the actual reason for my choosing the name - Akshay Kumar!" laughs the Khiladi .
