9 Times Akshay Kumar Was Shut Down By Netizens For Making Stupid Statements

by IForHer Team
June 10, 2022

Akshay Kumar – the actor, who has given us iconic movies like Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Welcome, or Hera Pheri – is considered as one of the most successful actors of recent times. While many may love Akshay Kumar, there have been times, the actor left the internet very disappointed with his controversial statements. Here are some of such incidents:

1. History Books Curriculum

Recently, Akshay Kumar made a statement about how our history school books just mention a few lines about Prithviraj. In his interview, he said: “Nobody is there to write about it in our history books. I would like to appeal to the Education Minister to look into this matter and see if we can balance it. We should know about the Mughals but know about our kings also, they were great too!”

The Internet quickly came forward and pointed out how his opinion wasn’t true. They corrected him with the following Tweets:

There are two entire chapters about Prithviraj Chauhan in NCERT Class 7 history textbook. Lekin Canada Kumar ko propaganda se fursat mile tab wo padhega na.

PS: Mughals were our kings too pic.twitter.com/1FycTI3kJp

Dear @akshaykumar/@smitaprakash
It’s clear that u never bothered to read ur #History books. I was in school (CBSE) in 80s/90s & had read about all the major Indian kingdoms/dynasties. Plz at least check the History books of your kids. Wonder if @mrsfunnybones has a view on this? https://t.co/BkO5TzF5bG

2. No Spoilers For Samrat Prithviraj

Recently, Akshay Kumar took to social media to request his fans not to give out the spoilers for Samrat Prithviraj. He believed that it would ruin the movie for others. But, Netizens quickly pointed out how CBSE already revealed the spoilers long back.

Apparently it’s based on History but has spoilers. Lolz. 😂😂😂 https://t.co/1mCAKHCOlU

Historical movies ke spoiler tou CBS board bachpan se de rha h,jahil ke bachhe @akshaykumar

— Abdullah (@copycreate2) June 3, 2022

Akshay Kumar requests fans not to give away spoilers about Prithviraj.

History doesn’t have spoilers, but works of fiction do.

3. Thorough Research On Prithviraj 

Akshay Kumar pointed out how the team did a thorough research about Samrat Prithviraj.

18 years of research, 2 years of VFX and 3 Covid-19 waves later…this day is finally here.
It’s time to go to a big screen near you, #SamratPrithviraj IN CINEMAS NOW!
Book your tickets now.https://t.co/nWBNMT3STshttps://t.co/J1WZalqY9s pic.twitter.com/zEJAGKpN3h

— Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) June 3, 2022

People in no time pointed out how Prithviraj was factually incorrect. Many pointed out the plot holes and goof-ups in the movie as well.

The movie Prithvi Raj is a classic example of life after death !!!
Prithvi Raj Chauhan died in 1192, but he returned from the dead to kill Mohammad Ghori in 1206; 14 years later.

— Pradeep Saxena (@Pradeep30341602) June 3, 2022

Not studying about Prithviraj Chauhan is possibly why Akshay Kumar doesn’t know the age at which the Rajput king died. Nothing else explains a 54 year old agreeing to play a 25-26 year old. That’s one mystery solved.

This also happened:

So the research started when Manushi Chillar was 6 yrs old, who would have thought !!! 👍 https://t.co/4dTvT3hVw2

— IIIIIIIIIll (@_NairFYI) June 3, 2022

Man
When you started research your
Heroine was 7 years old
What epic research

4. Vimal Pan Masala Controversy

How could one forget when netizens pointed out Akshay Kumar’s hypocrisy to endorse Vimal Pan masala. In no time the old video of him claiming that celebs should not endorse products like tobacco went viral in no time.

— PrinCe (@Prince8bx) April 13, 2022

Listen! ALL INDIA HEALTH & FITNESS EXPERT @akshaykumar‘s Views on Tobacco Advertisements, a Few Yrs Back 🤣

& Now He Has Joined The ‘VIMAL UNIVERSE’, Hypocrite Much @akshaykumar? Ab kya Vimal khaane se Bones aur Muscles Fit Hone lagenge 😭 pic.twitter.com/AiYTLJFH5l

— YOGESH (@i_yogesh22) April 13, 2022

After the backlash, he definitely issued an apology. But, netizens pointed out how he wasn’t being completely honest about his apology note

Since it is an honest clarification, I’d wish there was honesty in the statement Akki sir 🙏 pic.twitter.com/40g6GwcoWl

5. Walking On Treadmill = Women’s Plight In Rural India

Netizens called out Akshay Kumar for his stupid promotional act when he thought walking 21 km on a treadmill would be a good idea to understand the plight of rural women. His act made netizens really pissed:

Walking on a electricity powered treadmill inside an air-conditioned studio wearing sneakers and talking about the plight of women who have to walk kilometres to fetch water. 🤦🏽‍♂️
Hypocrisy thy name is Akshay Kumar. pic.twitter.com/TUznZmFx9R

— JayJay (@JamProlio) January 26, 2021

Im still pissed at this.. So let me get this straight, he’s gonna walk on a treadmill, in the comfort of his home, with comfy shoes, and he thinks thats equivalent to Women fetching water barefoot from long distances, in the scorching heat?? @akshaykumar Get the fuck out of here! https://t.co/rxwhKBsupK

— Amyy80 (@Amyy_80) January 26, 2021

6. Contradictory Statements About God

Akshay Kumar made contradicting statements about Gods. When he urged people to donate money for the construction of a temple, netizens quickly shared an old clip where he mentioned how spending money on Gods isn’t a great idea. People called him a hypocrite.

बहुत खुशी की बात है कि अयोध्या में हमारे श्री राम के भव्य मंदिर का निर्माण शुरू हो चूका है…अब योगदान की बारी हमारी है l मैंने शुरुआत कर दी है, उम्मीद है आप भी साथ जुड़ेंगे l जय सियाराम 🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/5SvzgfBVCf

— Akshay Kumar (@akshaykumar) January 17, 2021

I agree with this guy. But he doesn’t agree with himself now. https://t.co/gmkkS9Tx8K

— Vinit Raichandani🇮🇳 (@FreebirdGhalib) January 18, 2021

7. Tip Tip Barsa Remake

During the remake of ‘Tip Tip Barsa Pani’, when Akshay Kumar attempted to take the whole credit of the song. People took no time to remind him how no one can replace Raveena Tandon in a yellow saree! And, we completely agree.

Sir with due respect, no one remembers that you were also there in that song. https://t.co/ipmSNTAfLe

— Amit (@Goddamittt) June 23, 2019

I can’t imagine this song without Raveena in it. Don’t recreate it pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase!😭

— Unnati Madan (@unnati_madan) June 23, 2019

You were good. But no one can replace @TandonRaveena in a yellow saree

8. Glorification of Manual Scavenging 

Sadly, Akshay Kumar took to social media to glorify manual scavenging in his tweet.

Akshay-Kumar-Shut-down-internet-02

In no time, people called him out for glorifying manual scavenging which is an illegal practice in India. This is what the tweet said, which was later deleted.

Hey @Twitter @TwitterIndia
Please take this disgusting tweet glorifying manual scavenging off Twitter. This is ridiculous. https://t.co/xXbmg3vu8e

— جُنی بھئیا (@juneymb) October 5, 2017

I thought manual scavenging was illegal in India. This is surely something to be fixed, not celebrated? https://t.co/fU33oGA0eV

9. Rising Petrol Prices

When Akshay Kumar was brutally trolled to delete one of his old tweets, in which he criticized the rising petrol prices.

The ABVP Pracharak , Canadian Citizen , Padma Shri @akshaykumar Has Deleted His Tweet Regarding #Petrol Price Hike .. Request Him To Re-tweet it back As We Have Reached At Highest #FuelPrice Now .. Or is like ‘sarkar ka chakkar babu bhaiyya’ .. ! pic.twitter.com/XZmdqc3yJC

— Niraj Bhatia (@bhatia_niraj23) May 21, 2018

— Niraj Bhatia (@bhatia_niraj23) May 21, 2018

Wonder why .@akshaykumar deleted this tweet.

Maybe he doesn’t have the STREANH to face public with increasing #petrolpricehike ? pic.twitter.com/wkAZYsYj5T

— Mr Certitude (@Swapzz) May 21, 2018

Netizens expect more maturity and authenticity in the acts of Akshay Kumar. We don’t think they are expecting too much. In the end, no one likes a Superstar, who sounds like a hypocrite!
