Reportedly, Akshay was granted Canadian citizenship in exchange for his offer to use his “star power to advance Canada-Indian relations.” In a 2010 interview, the Hera Pheri actor, who holds an honorary doctorate from the University of Windsor, claimed to have “dual citizenship.”
Akshay announced in 2019 that he intends to renounce his Canadian citizenship and has applied for an Indian passport.As a result of his Canadian citizenship, Akshay has endured years of intense criticism from a subset of film fans. “Having a Canadian passport does not diminish my Indianness. I am predominantly Indian. During an engagement, he stated, “I’ve been in the United States for nine years, ever since I received my passport.”
