On the occasion of the 76th Independence Day today, actor Akshay Kumar shares the news of receiving Indian citizenship. He shared proof of the same on Twitter with a picture of his official government documents. Akshay was previously a Canadian citizen, for which he has often been criticised by some sections.
He wrote with the tweet, “Dil aur citizenship, dono Hindustani. Happy Independence Day! Jai Hind." His fans congratulated him and wished him a Happy Independence Day.
Earlier, Akshay had stated that he had applied for an Indian passport a couple of years back, however, the process was delayed because of COVID-19.
Dil aur citizenship, dono Hindustani.

Akshay often faced criticism over his Canadian citizenship. Over the years, he has also been a victim of several trolls because of the same. In February 2023, the actor addressed the matter and stated that he would want to become an Indian citizen again after denouncing his Canadian citizenship.
During one of his interviews, Akshay said he feels bad when people say things without knowing the real reason for him taking up Canadian citizenship. "India is everything to me. Whatever I have earned, whatever I have gained is from here. And I'm fortunate that I get a chance to give back. You feel bad when people say things without knowing anything," he had said during an interaction with AajTak.
