We all know that how Bollywood actors, these days have nose-dived into method acting in order to get into the 'skin' of the character. A perfect example is in the form of the eternal 'Perfectionist' Aamir Khan and his dedication towards any roles that he plays. Seems like, Akshay has decided to walk the same path, but in his impeccable 'Khiladi' style. That explains the reason as to why the actor has been seen sporting a 'Blue;' tattoo on his neck. And the reason is that 'Blue' is also the name of his upcoming underwater action flick starring a whole bunch of B-town residents for company!

Produced by Shree Ashtavinayak Cine Vision Ltd. and directed by debutant director Anthony D'souza, Blue has sure spiked up everyone's curiosity with its promise of breathtaking underwater sequences, thrills, adventure and fast paced action. For starters, Akshay Kumar plays the character of a rich businessman who is obsessed with money and is thirsty for more who does not hesitate to flaunt his arrogance and status.

Based on the oceans, the significance of Blue doesn't end here. He even owns a business called 'Blue Shipping & Fisheries'.

Blue's director Anthony thought it would be a brilliant idea to have 'Blue' tattooed on the back of Akshay's neck as it would add 'that' extra edge to his character. While it was sheer presence of mind to call Akshay's character as 'Aarav', as he had already inked his son's name 'Aarav' on his back.

Looks like Akshay has once again proved his dedication to his craft and his penchant for perfection. What really needs to be seen is that whether Akshay's fellow actors go 'Red' looking at Akshay's 'Blue'!
