Angry with the ‘surgical strikes’ taking a political turn, Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has put out a message to fellow countrymen, asking them to think about the army and those 19 soldiers who laid down their lives for the country.
“Something which has been on my mind since the past few days and I just had to say it. Not intending to offend anyone… so here goes” the actor said, posting a video of the his message
“I am not speaking to you as a celebrity today. I am speaking to you as the son of an army man. For the past few days, I have been seeing and reading that people are arguing and some are asking for proof about surgical strikes, some are demanding ban on artistes, while some fear that there might be a war”
“Arey sharam karo (have some shame). These debates can happen later. First one must realise that people have already laid down their lives at the border. Nineteen jawans died during the attack and a 24-year-old jawan Nitin Yadav died in Baramulla”
“Are their families, or the families of our thousands of jawans, worried whether a film will release or not? Whether an artiste will be banned? No. They are worried about their future.”
“And our concern should be to ensure that their present and future is better. I am, because they are. You are, because they are and if they are not there, then India won’t exist. Jai Hind.”

Really it’s a shame on Indian politics.

#Indicine your first line is totally wrong Akshay “Angry with the ‘surgical strikes” He is not angry with surgical strikes. Akshay Kumar is angry with the some more on indian people those make shameful controversy rather than standing together as a Indian. And every on now whos those more on people.
I love my INDIA and i proud we an Indian
Respect for AKKI.
But I want you to notice hypocrisy of BHAKTS
If Aamir would have said this
People would have been saying
‘He is promoting DANGAL’.
When he tweets to support a Good Cause or Charity
Bhakts-PUBLICITY STUNT to promote Dangal so BOYCOTT DANGAL
When he didnt tweet then
Bhakts-Why he didnt tweet?
He is an anti national
Boycott DANGAL.
jai hind….akki paji,,,,,,,THE BOSS IS ALWAYS RIGHT…
@Akshay Kumar true patriot
Respect sir
Super Akshay..PROUD ON AKSHAY KUMAR Trending.
he is indirectly also supporting karan johar’s movie ADHM movie which is facing unnecessary problems in release . ?
@BILAL u r posting something old I guess..post something new.. And that actress is priyanka chopra I guess ,she Also Had link up with SRK ?
Fake patriotic person….just doing these tricks for his flop movies….
Good proud of you
@team indicine, do a comparison article Dhoni vs Bhaag Milkha Bhaag as both are big hits of the same genre
@ Floppy,
IN YOUR LIFE NOTHING IS REMAIN TO DO, GET SOME LIFE, MAN…
DON’T GIVE US THE PROOFS OF YOUR MENTAL CONDITION, KEEP AWAY YOUR RETIRED BRAIN OUT FROM HERE AND AT LEAST LEARN SOME RESPECT AND MANNERS THAT WHAT COMMENT YOU POST ON WHAT PLATFORM…
ANYWAYS, IT WILL LEAD TO DEGRADE OUR SELF RESPECT, IF ANYONE OF US WILL TRY TO RESPOND YOU BACK… YOU ARE A KIND OF JERK ON THIS PLANET WHO HAS NO AIM AND NO REASON TO SURVIVE, GET LOST…
@floppy u moron when did akki said he will never work with pakistani artist if he ever said that it would have been a big controversy and entire indians and pakistanis would know about it so think before u comment u beggar we all know u don’t have anything to do in life other than begging and down grading akki tera kuch nahin ho sakta
Absolutely fair
Raj Thakre Saheb also praised Akki sir tweet .
Hats Off Akshay Sir..This is called the real Hindustani…Unlike those Khans who always try to support Pakistan..A true patriot, A true Hindustani…JAI HIND
Fake wannabe patriot who in reality is canadian. Just show off to sell his movies after almost ended caresr with bunch of flops and disasters even on big festival lile christmas and diwali he gave flops. Shame.
