Akshay Kumar Suggests Karate For Kids

Akshay Kumar has planned to pump in Rs 2 crore in the third annual Akshay Kumar Karate championship. The khiladi Kumar also wants the martial arts training to be included in school curriculums across the country. The actor has a strong reasoning for this argument. He believes that the country's children should learn to protect themselves from enemies.

"While talking to someone in Singapore, I realised that every citizen in that country has to go through military training. In that manner, everyone would be trained as a soldier and during war times, no shortage of soldiers would take place," he said.

"I hope India never goes for a war but if it does we'll never fall short of trained people and over everything there is no harm in having civilians who are trained with basic martial art forms," he added.
