Mumbai: A video showcased Rajpal Yadav being ‘pushed’ by Akshay Kumar during the promotion of the film Bhooth Bangla. He stated that he has a lot of love and respect for Kumar.
In the video circulating online, Akshay Kumar and Rajpal Yadav were seen along with Priyanka Chahar Chaudhary, Ekta Kapoor, and Kanika Mann. They were posing for a picture when Akshay was seen asking Rajpal to the ride side.
Speaking to ANI, Rajpal clarified why the Bollywood actor asked him to move to the side.
“If I talk about the controversy of that day, both Akshay and Ekta had come along with the other two girls. I was late, and they were waiting for me. As soon as I came running, I was in the middle of the girls. So Akshay paji was telling me that we will keep the women in the middle, and I will stand on one side, and he will stand on the other,” said Rajpal.

He added, “This is actually the deep-rooted moral values of Akshay Paji that we decided to stand like this. I don’t know what people thought from a distance. Actually, Akshay sir has this gesture that when there are three girls and two males, the three females are always in the middle with one male on one side, the other male on the other side.”
Further, the actor reflected on his long relationship with Rajpal.
“Akshay Paji, from 2003, from Mujhse Shaadi Karogi to Bhooth Bangla, we must have shouted at each other ten times in life, must have rehearsed ten times, must have done something to each other ten times. In life, he loves me, I love him, and I get inspired by him somewhere. We know each other’s acting, and we respect each other a lot,” said the actor.
The actors have starred together in Hera Pheri, Bhagam Bhag, Bhool Bhulaiyaa, Mujhse Shaadi Karogi, Khatta Meetha.
