Akshay Kumar’s comment for his co-judge Mallika Dua on the show The Great Indian Laughter Challenge gave rise to a new controversy. The words Akshay said in fun did not go down well with Mallika’s father Vinod Dua, who lashed out at Akki on social media. He expressed his outrage against Akshay Kumar by sharing the video clip on his Facebook where the actor can be clearly heard passing lewd remarks on his daughter.
Vinod Dua wrote, “I am going to screw this cretin Akshay Kumar for telling his co-worker Mallika Dua that ‘aap bell bajao main aapko bajata hun’ at 5:26. This is his sense of humour and language. Star Plus. Wake up.”
Mallika Dua also shared her father’s video clip and asked a quick question to the netizens whether they find Akshay Kumar’s comments funny or entertaining. However, both father and daughter have taken a U-turn now!
While Vinod Dua deleted his post, Mallika made her Twitter account Private. When contacted, a source from the channel shared that they had edited and have not even aired that portion of video. Well, it looks Mallika and Vinod Dua’s rant against Akshay Kumar was uncalled for and their action post leaking the video is a proof of hypocrisy!
