Actor Akshay Kumar found himself in an uncomfortable situation on the streets of London recently, when a fan began recording him without his consent. The actor, who appeared visibly upset, confronted the individual and even attempted to snatch the phone out of the fan’s hand. Despite the moment, Akshay eventually calmed down and agreed to take a selfie with the same fan.
A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. In the clip, Akshay is seen dressed in a grey printed tank top, matching shorts, and a beanie, walking solo in London. As the fan began filming him up close without permission, Akshay turned around, appeared agitated, and tried to take the phone away.
However, the situation de-escalated quickly. Towards the end of the video, the actor is seen posing for a selfie with the same fan, indicating a peaceful conclusion to the moment.
Take a look at the video:
The incident sparked mixed reactions online. One user commented, “When will people have the civic sense not to film someone without their consent? It’s a shameful act. You could have normally asked for a selfie.”
Another jokingly wrote, “Justin Bieber ki biopic ki shooting chall rahi hai,” while a third user commented, “But why are you doing this?”
On the professional front, Akshay Kumar has a packed slate of releases. He will soon be seen in ‘Bhooth Bangla’ alongside Wamiqa Gabbi and Paresh Rawal. He’s also set to return with ‘Hera Pheri 3’, and has other major projects lined up including ‘Welcome to the Jungle’, ‘Jolly LLB 3’, ‘Haiwaan’, and the Marathi historical drama ‘Vedat Marathe Veer Daudle Saat’.
