Akshay Kumar, the well-known Bollywood actor, has been granted Indian citizenship on the Independence Day, as he announced on his social media accounts. While sending Independence Day wishes, he captioned the post saying, “Dil aur citizenship, dono Hindustani. Happy Independence Day.”
The Canadian citizenship has always been a source of criticism against Akshay Kumar. Earlier this year, during an interview with a Media channel, the actor said that India means everything to him and that he has already asked for a change of passport.
In the 1990s, he experienced a period of leanness in his career when he delivered over 15 consecutive failures, which led him to apply for Canadian citizenship. Due to not voting in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, his citizenship status was under intense scrutiny.
After conducting a ‘non-political’ interview with Prime Minister Narendra Modi before the elections, the matter became a topic of discussion. Now, finally Akshay got the Indian Citizenship.
While on the professional front, the actor has finally seen a hit film after many flops shows. His latest film, OMG 2, is proving to be a success at the box office as it received critical acclaim and good collections as well. The film has garnered a total of over 55 Crores net in India for 4 days. The collections on the Mondays have crossed 12 Crore, which is higher than the release date, which was over 10 Crore.
