Akshay starred in the first Khiladi film in 1992, which was his first successful action film. In fact, the name Khiladi Kumar was coined for the actor since he never looked back after the first film’s success.

All the Khiladi films belong to the action genre, and Akshay Kumar was the first action superstar of the 90s. The only film in the Khiladi franchise that was not action-dominated was Mr. & Mrs. Khiladi, which belonged to the comedy genre.

Director and Producer Keshu Ramsay passed away on Oct 19. Keshu, made his Bollywood debut with the film Haveli. He later continued to be associated with his brothers in the making of horror films. He however, decided to move away from horror to making big commercial movies, mostly featuring Akshay Kumar. He produced quite a few 'Khiladi' films of Akshay which include Sabse Bada Khiladi, Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi, Mr. and Mrs. Khiladi, International Khiladi and Khiladi 420. He was also the producer of Khakee, Insan and Family - Ties of Blood. Keshu Ramsay expired day before yesterday after suffering from a massive heart attack. Apparently, he was at a family gathering when all of a sudden while dancing he collapsed. Bollywood Hungama sends out its sincere condolences to his family and may he rest in peace.

He has been the Khiladi, Khiladiyon Ka Khiladi and Sabse Bada Khiladi, but no one ever thought that he would also be the Sabse bada Tax Payer. Surprising as it may be Akshay Kumar edged past the other stars in Bollywood to become the highest tax payer for the financial year 2008-2009. Which is why The Cbec, Central Board Of Excise and Customs, has roped in Akshay Kumar to feature in a television commercial urging people to pay their taxes honestly and on time. Says the Additional Commissioner, Customs & Central Excise, Cbec, "In 2008-2009 Akshay Kumar emerged the highest Bollywood tax payer. We approached Mr.Kumar to feature in the advertisement since to us he was someone who could represent the message of paying one's taxes on time which is every citizen's duty. He has great appeal and being a superstar he can really help encourage people to pay taxes honestly.
