Online discussions about Akshay Kumar's online proof of his Indian citizenship have been ongoing for the past day. In his Independence Day greetings, the Bollywood star revealed that he now has Indian citizenship. He posted on his social media platforms, "Dil aur citizenship, dono Hindustani. Happy Independence Day! Jai Hind," along with an image of the official registration document. Although Akshay faced trolling over Canadian citizenship earlier, this announcement apparently didn't attract attention from meme-makers once again.
Trolls zeroed in on his renouncing citizenship from a first-world country, where many Indians go for better opportunities. Comments such as, Lmao, imagine leaving citizenship of a first world country because a bunch of nobodies trolled you," and humorously, "#Usually Punjabis go to Canada for Canadian citizenship, but you're the first Punjabi to come back to India from Canada for Indian citizenship. How did you do that?" circulated.
As the trolling dragged on late into Thursday night, some fans came out in support of him, leading to the hashtags #AkshayKumar and #AkshayIndianKumar being trending on Twitter.
His Canadian identity had also been poked fun at for a long time: Akshay sought out Canadian citizenship after a string of over 15 consecutive film failures in the 1990s. His citizenship status came up for scrutiny after he abstained from voting in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, which ignited debates. On the professional front, having finally found success with his recent movie release, OMG 2, crossing ₹55.17 crore at the Indian box office after a series of flops.
