Akshay Kumar's old cigarette ad

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is in news for quite some time now. A day after Akshay Kumar stepped back from the Vimal Pan Masala advertisement facing massive backlash for endorsing a tobacco brand, an old photo of the actor promoting a cigarette brand is ruling the Internet.

Laxxmi Bomb actor shared an apology note on Thursday on Instagram which read 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. While I have not and will endorse tobacco, I respect the outpouring of your feelings in light of my association with Vimal Elaichi. With all humility, I step back. I have decided to contribute the entire endorsement fee towards a worthy cause, he concluded.

It didn’t take time for people to dig up the old advertisement of the actor promoting the Red and White cigarette. People blamed Akshay Kumar for lying in his apology note. On one side the actor writes in his apology note that he hasn’t promoted any such brand and on the other hand his old photo endorsing cigarettes goes viral. One user commented, since it is an honest clarification, I’d wish there was honesty in the statement Akki sir.

Another user said, whenever I go to movies and see the ad of Akshay Kumar is doing that Padman and asking to buy sanitary pads instead of cigarettes, I just remember this ad from my childhood. Sacchi Red and White peene waalo ki baat hi kuch aur hai, he concluded.

It all started a few days ago when Akshay Kumar became the brand ambassador of the Vimal Pan Masala brand alongside Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan. However, after receiving massive criticism on social media, the actor announced his discontinuation with the brand.

Aamir Khan is getting ready for Sitaare Zameen Par, his upcoming film. The actor took a break following Lal Singh Chaddha‘s failure on the box office. The shooting of Sitare Zameen Par is reportedly set to start in Delhi the next month, in May.

Aamir Khan will be traveling to the national capital to shoot his upcoming film, according per a report. Aamir Khan will fly down to Delhi next month for Sitare Zameen Par‘s shoot, a source was quoted as saying. For the shooting of his film, he will travel to the capital with about 11 child actors. Other notable cast members will also be there; their specifics are still pending.

The schedule is set for one month, between May and June, the same source continued. For the shoot, the children will take part in a variety of Paralympic Games. Several locations in Delhi, such as Lal Qila, Purani Dilli, Lodhi Garden, and Thayagraj stadium, will be used for filming. They are filming it in several parts of Delhi since they don’t want all the youngsters to go to the NCR.

This film will make you laugh, it will entertain you, Aamir Khan said when he unveiled Sitare Zameen Par at an event following the box office failure of Laal Singh Chaddha. However, the topic remains the same (as Taare Zameen Par), which is why they have carefully considered their options for a similar name. They are carrying on this theme since although they all have shortcomings and flaws, they also all have something unique to offer. Those nine boys, who have their own problems, assisted him in Sitare Zameen Par, he added.

Darsheel Safary portrayed the dyslexic character Ishaan Awasthi in the film Taare Zameen Par, while Aamir Khan played the role of art teacher Ram Shankar Nikumbh, in the film. Taare Zameen Par was release in 2007 in December 21. With a global earnings of Rs 1.35 billion. The film was a commercial success.
