AKSHAY KUMAR

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is the latest film celebrity to be bestowed with an honorary doctorate degree by the University of Windsor in Canada. In fact, Akshay was honored in Ontario on May 9 as he has been actively involved in the social work both in India and Canada. Significantly, the actor is in the process of setting up a home for the elderly, especially those in the Indian community, many of whom are neglected by their kin. On receiving the doctorate Akshay said, "This honor that I have received today is bigger than the Oscar, I am truly humbled". Akshay now has joined the league of honorary doctorate personalities like Yash Chopra, Amitabh Bachchan Shabana Azmi and Shilpa Shetty, who were conferred similar kind of honorary doctorates from foreign universities in the past.
