It was an honourable moment for the Khanna family of Bollywood. Akshay Kumar, the khiladi of the Indian cinema, is one of the finest actors India has. After over two decades of work, Akshay Kumar has got his due finally!
Remember all the National Award controversy? People criticised the nomination of Akshay’s name but finally, Akshay has received the National Award for his role in the movie ‘Rustom’. It was a proud moment for the whole family. Akshay himself shared his excitement with fans on Twitter,
