Akshay Kumar is one of the leading Bollywood actors. He recently graced the episode of Koffee With Karan wherein he shared his views on being trolled, people giving him the ‘Canada Kumar’ tag, others judging him for romancing younger actresses – some nearly half his age, and lots more.

As per reports in Koi Moi, Karan asked Akshay if he has even been trolled for being Canadian and the ‘Canada Kumar’ tag some have bestowed on him. While talking about it, he revealed he was heavily trolled after he applied for Canadian citizenship and didn’t cast his vote in the Lok Sabha elections in 2019.

Akshay said, “At the most, they write about Canada. Which I don’t care.” Johar was quick to point out that the trolls call the actor Canada Kumar, “The trolls call you Canada Kumar.” To that, Akshay replied, “Yeah Canada Kumar. Okay, call me that.”

During the same chat, Akshay was also asked if he’s faced backlash for romancing a younger heroine – sometimes nearly half his age, while in his mid-50s, To this, the Raksha Bandhan actor has a sass-filled response. He simply said, “They are jealous.” Justifying working with the younger lot of female actresses, he said, “Why shouldn’t I? I can work with them. Lagta hun kya 55 ka (Do I look 55)?”
