The answer is a nine-year-old girl Shravari Bhavesh Desai. Shravari, a participant of the Akshay’s first Invitational National Karate Tournament wrote a thank you letter to the star. She wrote about how, after participating in the tournament, she became a mini celebrity in her hometown, Surat and even appeared in the local newspaper.

Akshay’s friend and advisor of the tournament, Mehul Vora came across Shravari’s letter, while going through the numerous letters he has received after the tournament.
Says Mehul, “It was a small but emotional letter. Shravari has already been a student of the Nippon Budo Sogo International India for over five years and is currently a golden brown belt. She was one of the youngest participants in the tournament. In the letter, she said she had a nice time with Akshay. I showed the letter to Akshay.”

Sources say that Aarav (Akshay’s son) is around the same age as Shravari and the fact that such a young girl could write this letter to him overwhelmed him. Reveals a source, “Akshay Kumar wishes that the girl’s training and practice should continue as she has great potential.” Akshay’s fan following seems to be growing in monstrous proportions and includes, as we can see, kids as well.
