Akshay Kumar is gearing up for Welcome To The Jungle which will release in cinemas this Friday. On June 23, there was a grand musical event held with the star cast where the leading man spoke about a lot of things, but the one thing that has gone viral is where he says health is more important than money.

Kumar believes that while fortunes can be rebuilt, good health is not always so easily regained. "It is very rare to see someone lose their health and get it back completely," he says.

That perspective has shaped his priorities. For the actor, health outweighs money because it forms the foundation of everything else. "There is nothing more important than good health. That's why, in my opinion, health is far more valuable than money. There is nothing more important than good health," he says, adding that once a person is healthy, earning money is always possible.

His wish, he says, is simple that everyone is blessed with good health. Because while wealth may come and go, health remains life's most valuable asset. "My prayer to God is that everyone is blessed with good health. Once you have your health, money can always be earned again," he said signing off.
