Akshay Kumar finally gets Indian citizenship on 77th Independence Day

On the 77th Independence Day, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar finally received Indian citizenship. For those unversed, Kumar had citizenship in Canada. Sharing a post on Instagram, he shared the documents of the same and wrote, "Dil aur citizenship, dono Hindustani. Happy Independence Day! Jai



Hind."

The actor, on several occasions, addressed people criticising him over his citizenship. He had earlier said that he felt disappointed when people questioned his love for the country. In 2019, he applied for Indian citizenship and three years later he was granted one. The process took time given the Covid-19 pandemic.
