Bipasha Basu has praised Akshay Kumar for his exercise regime.
The actor made the comments on the Indian chat show Comedy Nights with Kapil (via Business of Cinema).
She told the host: "I feel Akshay Kumar is the fittest actor because right from my first film I have seen, he is super energetic, looks after his health and eats right. Salman Khan is a fitness icon and he has got the body into the business.
"Every single boy aspires to have a body like Salman. They are the iconic stalwarts in the fitness world of our country. In the current lot of actresses, Deepika Padukone looks fit. She has a fitness background because of her father; I think it's imbibed."
Basu is currently promoting her latest fitness DVD titled Unleash.
She became the brand ambassador for Salman Khan's brother Sohail's celebrity cricket team last year.
Khan reportedly got in touch with the Dabanng star after her break-up with his rival John Abraham.
