Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is currently busy promoting his upcoming film, Welcome To The Jungle. Recently, the actor was spotted at the airport as he headed to Delhi from Mumbai.

Akshay Kumar’s fun banter with paparazzi
As Akshay made his way into the airport, dressed in a crisp black shirt paired with grey trousers, he was greeted by paparazzi eager to know where he was headed. One photographer cheekily called out, “Sir, kahan jaa rahe ho?” (Sir, where are you going?). Rather than revealing his destination, the actor responded with his trademark wit. “Kyun, tu mama lagta hai mera?” (Why? Are you my uncle?), instantly sending the paparazzi into laughter. He later revealed that he was travelling to Delhi to celebrate International Yoga Day.
The light-hearted exchange quickly grabbed social media’s attention, where fans couldn’t stop praising the actor’s impeccable comic timing. Many were even reminded of his Hera Pheri character. One of the fans wrote, “Raju mode activated.” Another commented, “Akshay and his one-liners are unmatched.” Several others applauded the actor’s sense of humour, with comments such as “Akshay at his best” Some fans even credited his natural flair for comedy. One of the Instagram users wrote, “Comedy khoon mein hai uske (Comedy is in his DNA).”
