MUMBAI: Superstar Akshay Kumar on Thursday waded into the controversy over actor Richa Chadha’s tweet on the 2020 deadly Galwan Valley clash, saying he is deeply saddened by her “ungrateful” comment.
In the now-deleted tweet, Chadha had written “Galwan says hi” in response to the Northern Army Commander Lt General Upendra Dwivedi’s statement that the Indian Army is “waiting for orders from the govt (sic)” in reclaiming Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK).
This led to severe backlash on Twitter with many criticising her for “mocking the sacrifice” of Indian soldiers.
Commenting on Chadha’s post of “Galwan says hi”, Kumar said the contribution of India’s armed forces should not be overlooked.
“Hurts to see this. Nothing ever should make us ungrateful towards our armed forces. Woh hain toh aaj hum hain,” the 55-year-old star wrote.
Hurts to see this. Nothing ever should make us ungrateful towards our armed forces. Woh hain toh aaj hum hain.
