Over the course of time, Akshay Kumar has been in the news with the rumours about him entering the politics. Addressing the claims, in a recent interview, the actor went on to clarify that he has no plans of joining politics in the near future.
Akshay said, “No, I am not joining politics. I don’t know what will happen in the future but for now, I am not joining politics. I am making such films because I feel it’s important to bring such subjects in front of people. God has given me such a nice platform that I can do films and I can tell people what all has happened in our nation through my films, like that of Kesari, Samrat Prithviraj, or any other film.”
He further added, “Lots of time people say that they promoted Swachh Bharat Mission and I made Toilet: Ek Prem Katha. They had a Mars Mission and I made Mission Mangal. Aisa nahi hai, maine Airlift bhi banai, us waqt Congress ka raaj tha. No one talked about that. Even Mission Raniganj is set during Congress’ tenure. It is about the bigness and goodness and what happened. It doesn't matter who was in power. What matters is what was done for the betterment of the country.”
