"puttar vadda soch - Akshay Kumar's Mother"

Mumbai, April 16

Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar recently opened up about how his mother inspired him to think big while he aimed at buying his first ever flat, at his own merit.

Sharing a memory of his first home, Akshay said, "Pehla ghar jab maine socha tha apna lene ke liye. Toh maine socha tha ki main 2 bedroom flat lunga."

He then recalled his mother's guidance, adding, "Lekin meri maa ne kaha, 'puttar vadda soch.' Main kaha iss se aur vadda ki sochanga, 2 kamre ka flat mil jaaye iss se vadda ki."

Akshay went on to explain how his mother encouraged him to think even bigger, eventually inspiring him to aim for a 5-bedroom flat.

He further elaborated, "Unka kehna tha jo pehla flat hota hai na... jo pehla ghar hota hai, vo apne liye lena hota hai. Vo apne khud ke liye lena hota hai. Uske liye bhagwan jo hai, vo khud aap ko kisi na kisi tarah paise poore karwa ke rahenge."

He also highlighted the importance of immense effort when it comes to investing, saying, "Lekin jo dusra flat hota hai na, jo aap investment ke naam pe lete ho, uske liye aap ko bahut mehnat karni padti hai."

The episode took an inspiring turn when Akshay Kumar, who is currently hosting the quiz reality show Wheel of Fortune, interacted with contestants Akshay, Purva , and Nikhil, where they all stuck a conversation about dreams and ambitions.

During the interaction, Nikhil mentioned that he dreams of buying a small house, prompting Akshay to encourage him to think bigger and aim higher.

Turning the conversation back to Nikhil, Akshay asked him about his dream, to which Nikhil humorously replied that he wants a 5 BHK, leaving everyone in splits.

Tapping into his quintessential witty side, Akshay remarked, "Itna bhi mat kheenchna ki upar wala maarna shuru kar de."

While the sentiment is nice, this feels a bit out of touch for the average person. Jumping from a 2BHK to a 5BHK in Mumbai as a first home? That's a dream for 0.1%. Most of us are struggling to afford a 1BHK. Good for him, but let's be real.

His mother's advice about the first home being for yourself and God providing is so deep. It's not just about real estate, it's about self-belief. "Vadda soch" is the key takeaway for any young professional today.

Love the cultural insight! The idea that the first major purchase should be substantial and for your own fulfillment is fascinating. His point about the second one requiring more hustle for investment is very true in today's market.

"Itna bhi mat kheenchna" 😂😂 Classic Akshay Kumar humour! The man has not changed. Great to see him sharing such personal stories and motivating the next generation. More celebrities should talk about their humble beginnings.

As someone also named Nikhil, I felt seen! 😅 Jokes aside, it's a powerful message. Aim high. Even if you fall short, you'll land higher than where you started. Time to tell my parents I'm aiming for a bungalow, not a flat!
