Watch: Akshay Kumar’s ‘Toronto is my home’ video sets internet on blaze after Canadian citizenship row; netizens in uproar

Akshay Kumar, who is known for his hard-core action skills and for patriotic films, has currently landed into the clutches of controversy. Yesterday, he broke the silence and took to his twitter handle to lower the flames of Canadian citizenship coming up to him but unfortunately it hit him back, this time with a video.

A video is doing rounds on social networking sites where we can see Akshay shouting out loud in front of Toronto citizens, "I must tell you one thing, 'This is my home. Toronto is my home.' After I retire from this industry, I'm going to come back here and stay here." As soon as netizens watched the video they started labelling the actor “fake nationalist” and as “liar.”

On Friday, on his twitter handle, he wrote he never tried to hide his Canadian passport and is saddened by the fact that his citizenship is constantly being dragged to make out a controversy.

Akshay Kumar recently attended a special screening of ‘Blank’ in Mumbai while leaving the screening one reporter asked him how would he react to the criticism doing rounds over his absence from the polling booth to this he smiled and said “Chaliye Beta,” before walking off.
