“I did not let any phobia get to me. I still remember,I was learning how to ride a horse for producer Pramod Chakravarthy’s film. I did not know how to ride a horse. I fell off,but Jeetu Varma,who was teaching me,told me to jump back and said if I get scared right now then for the rest of my life I will never ever ride a horse. I just got up – he made sure I jumped.”

Akshay,who would be hosting the fourth season of reality show ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi’,feels that fear is developed in the mind and one needs to overcome it.
