Akshay Kumar has never failed to impress. Be it with his comedy skills, or even action, mystery, thriller, anything! He suits in all genres and slays. But there are controversies about him, cause what’s Bollywood with controversy anyway?
A few of such controversies are down below:

1. The Runway Fiasco
Back in March 2008, Akshay was on a runway displaying a denim brand to show the new launch of denim. Everything was going fine but then he walked up to his wife while being under the spotlight. Akshay’s wife Twinkle Khanna unzipped his pants.
No context was given. It looked very vulgar and the talk spread like a wildfire.
2. Citizenship Controversy
The actor has always had to hear some trolls because of Canadian citizenship. In 2019 he didn’t vote for the Lok Sabha election and that’s when people started trolling him even more for being a Canadian and having a passport of the same.

“I don’t understand the unwarranted interest and negativity about my citizenship. I have never hidden or denied that I hold a Candian passport”, he tweeted this as a reply to the unwanted trolls and comments.

3. Good Newz Controversy
The movie Good Newz had a scene where Akshay was deciding his kids’ names. And there he cracked a joke saying, “Mere Bache Ka Naam Hola Ram Hai Kyunki Wo Holi Pe Paida Hua Tha,” to which Kumar replied as, “Acha Hua Aapka Bacha Lohri Pe Paida Nahi Hua.”
That created massive havoc on social media. Where people outrageously hated Akshay for hurting the sentiments of the people.

4. Rustom Controversy
Rustom, the film, of course, brought tears and made people feel a rush of emotions all at once. The uniform he wore there was auctioned and he announced the amount will be used for animal welfare. Then people took offense in that too! Saying he was tagging costume as a real uniform. After that happened he explained that the whole thing was planned for a good cause.
People need to take a chill man.
Hi all 🙋🏻♂️ I’m thrilled to announce that you can bid to win the actual naval officer uniform I wore in Rustom! Auction’s proceeds will support the cause of animal rescue and welfare. Place your bid at https://t.co/6Qr0LRnTFm! pic.twitter.com/FF23tlogs1
