Akshay Kumar is the most energetic actor, says Ranveer

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh reckons Akshay Kumar is the most energetic actor in the industry.

"If you talk about energy, the name that immediately comes in our mind is Akshay Kumar. He lives such a healthy lifestyle. He does not smoke or drink, early riser, regular workouts," Ranveer said on Monday.

When asked how much he enjoys the name 'Ranveer Superstar Singh' which has been tagged to him, he said, "Thank you... I take that as a compliment. I am very thankful for all the good works coming my way and most of all is the love of the audience."

Reportedly Ranveer might work for the third time in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Padmavati' (after "Ramleela" and "Bajirao Mastani"), but he said he is not able to speak about any of his upcoming projects.

"Something relevant about my upcoming projects, I will be the first person to let you know." he told media.

However, on being asked about the relationship status between the duo, Ranveer, 31, dodged the question with his typical wit, "Bhansali ji has a very good smile".

The actor also quipped that next time when he meets the maker he would gift him a maxfresh so that he (Sanjay Leela Bhansali) would have more beautiful smile.

In his forthcoming releases, Singh is all set to release his film "Befikre" that is directed by Aditya Chopra. So far, the posters of the film have made much noise because of the passionate lip locks between Vaani Kapoor and Ranveer Singh.

Set in the city of love, Paris the romantic drama is slated to release on December 9. The film marks the comeback of Aditya Chopra as a director after a gap of 8 years.
