Akshay Kumar has always come in support of the Indian soldiers. A few days ago, the actor donated Rs. 9 lac each to the families of the 12 Central CRPF personnel, who were killed during an encounter with the Naxalites on March 11 in Chhattisgarh’s Sukma district.

It was a smAkki got emotional during the launch of the app all dream and to fulfill this dream, our government really helped us. I want to thank everybody with my folded hands. My father was in Army and I am here as his son,” he added.
