The fans expressed their disappointment and displeasure over his association with this tobacco brand and the actor had personally gone through all the feedback.

Finally, he decided to step back and also issued a public apology for endorsing a tobacco brand. Akshay Kumar took to his Twitter profile and issued a statement regarding the same.

“I am sorry. I would like to apologize to you, all my fans, and well-wishers. Your reaction over the past few days has deeply affected me.
