Actor Akshay Kumar has put on extra kilos for his role in the upcoming film 'Raksha Bandhan', and has no qualms about it as he eats 'Halwa' cooked by his mother.

"I quite enjoy the process of losing or gaining weight for a character because I am able to do it in a healthy way. I have gained 5 kg in a totally natural process. And it also allowed me the rare indulgence of eating meri maa ke haath ka halwa. What a blessing," Akshay said.
