Fan slashes wrists to be able to meet Akshay Kumar

Some fan stories are written in blood. And this is the story of a young fan of Akshay Kumar who slashed one of her wrists because she couldn't meet him! But there is a happy ending.

Says a source close to the actor, "Preeta (name changed to protect identity of underage girl) stalked him for a year. She'd run away from home in Lucknow to meet him and would land up everywhere just to catch a glimpse of him and talk to him. But Akshay always has heavy security around him and she didn't get her way."

Slashed!

Finally, in sheer desperation, the teenage girl landed up at his Juhu home and told the security guards she wanted to meet the star. Naturally, they brushed off the request. When the guards refused to let her meet her idol, she slashed her wrist. The guards panicked and rushed to inform Akshay's staff who in turn informed Akki.u00a0

The distressed actor, who happened to be home at the time, rushed out immediately. Seeing the girl's physical and emotional trauma, he took her to a hospital in Juhu.

Keeping fan posted

He realised that she was crazy about him and wanted to be with him all the time. She believed that Akshay was her husband. The source continues, "Once she was stitched up and out of danger, he spoke to her. He made her understand and try and see things from the right perspective, and even called her parents in Lucknow and got them to come to Mumbai. Then he invited the girl along with her parents to his home for coffee and asked them to take care of her. He told her that she had to look after her parents as family is important and he was very attached to his own. Now the girl's parents have sent her abroad for her further studies but she's in touch with Akshay once a month. She writes to him keeping him posted about her developments."
