Those people are NRIs, they live and work there, then get green card then citizenship

Have not seen any Indian yet who lives and works in India but gave up Indian citizenship and took foreign one. That is unheard of ...



Oh I know this many people who stayed in US just enough to get the citizenship and have now moved on to India...They now have properties in US as well as in India and enjoy the fruits of both the worlds...Its quite normal and nothing shocking!

THEY is the reporters of course 😆
Why dont they ask him straightforward questions abt this?
They would have asked the Khans for sure... if any Khan had given up Indian citizenship they would be branded as traitors.

Its not abt Akki being called Mr India, but establishing an image of deshbhakt through his movies, interviews, sound bites, its the image in people's minds.

Because overt deshbhakti is the IN thing now, some actors are using that as the theme for their movies to curry public favor...but Akki leads in this endeavour...3 out of 4 of his movies have that theme, just like Manoj Kumar used to.


So are you suggesting that he shouldn't be acting in deshbhakti movies anymore just because he aint an Indian anymore? Or did Akshay ever say or do anything which suggested that he aint a deshbhakt anymore? 😕

They came and stayed here in US, worked and lived here for at least 10 yrs ...thats how long it takes to get citizenship here
so its not the same, Akki never lived in Canada for even a year, did he? 😆

You are talking abt ppl who work and live here in US, then retire and move back to India. Thats totally different.

I know bunch of NRIs (American GC holder or citizens) living in India.

One of them is 50+ couple moved back to live in their village & work for betterment of their village. Have heard many of such stories.

There is this girl from Chennai who was born here, A doctor, is living & working in India. Great story. She sees patient for free.

That's not unheard of.

Is 35 an age to retire? and most of the people that I know are in their early 40s who went back to India and having a successful career there...but are still US citizens!

Are you getting worked up too 😲 had no idea 😆
No one is questioning Akki here , we are just giving our views on the situation just like you are .
