Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar while talking in a panel at the Red Sea Film Festival in Saudi Arabia defended his anti-Pakistan films with remarks ‘It is just a movie”.
He responded to the comment and question when a Pakistani fan asked. “I have a request as you’re doing fantastic movies [such as] Pad Man and Toilet, all these movies that are bringing knowledge to people [and] solving daily routine issues,” adding, “There’s an issue between India and Pakistan as well, when there’s a cricket match happening, it seems like there’s a war somewhere happening.”
“So why don’t you, instead of making a movie [such as] your recent movie, Bell Bottom, that has certain things against Pakistan, why can’t we just, both countries they’ve separated but they’re not able to.”
Akshay Kumar was quick to respond with, “Sir, it’s just a movie. Don’t get so serious about it, it’s just a movie.”
