Have A Look At His Post:
Speaking about his Canadian citizenship, Akshay Kumar said in an Aaj Tak interview in February this year that, “India is everything to me. Whatever I have earned, whatever I have gained is from here. And I’m fortunate that I get a chance to give back. You feel bad when people say things without knowing anything.”
He further continued, “I thought that ‘bhai, my films are not working and one has to work’. I went there for work. My friend was in Canada and he said, ‘come here’. I applied and I got in. I had just two films left for release and it is just luck that they both became superhit. My friend said, ‘go back, start working again’. I got some more films and I kept getting more work. I forgot that I had the passport. I never thought that I should get this passport changed but now yes, I have applied to get my passport changed and once I get the renounced status from Canada.”
On the workfront, Akshay Kumar is recently seen in his film OMG 2 which was released on 11 August 2023 and is successfully running in theatres while getting positive reviews from the critics and the public. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Pankaj Tripathi and Yami Gautam in lead roles.
