Actor Akshay Kumar always maintains a good relationship with the paparazzi and often poses for photos in public. Recently, when asked if he is okay with paparazzi taking pictures of him or his family, or if the media should give him space, he defended the paparazzi culture, saying he doesn’t mind being clicked. He explained that photographers earn from their photos, and if someone's livelihood depends on it and it makes them happy, why should it bother him?
Akshay Kumar On Paps Invading Space
Speaking to India Today, Akshay said, "Ek photographer ko kariban 3.5-4k milte hain. Aur agar usko milte hain, toh mere liye kya problem honi chahiye? Meri sherwani mein kya pareshaani honi chahiye ki main khada ho ke photo le lu? Main photo leke, uss bichare ka ghar chal jayega, woh khush ho jayega, aur saari photo le jayega, toh isme koi burai nahi hai. Privacy kya naam ki? Agar aap bahar nikal gaye ho bacchon aur biwi ke saath, toh kis baat ki privacy?"
