Akshay Kumar gets teary-eyed after he receives an emotional message from his sister- WATCH

Actor Akshay Kumar is busy promoting his upcoming film, Raksha Bandhan on various platforms. Now, he has graced the singing reality show, Superstar Singer to promote his movie. We recently came across a video on social media where we see Akshay in tears after receiving an emotional message from his sister Alka Bhatia. Akshay got emotional hearing Alka’s message about how he always stood beside her.

Addressing him as ‘Raju’, she says in Punjabi, “I just remembered while chatting with someone that the festival of Rakhi is on August 11. You stood beside me at all times, good and bad. From being a father, and friend to a brother, you played all roles for me. Thank you for everything.”

As Akshay tries to control his tears, he said, “We used to live in a small house. After the arrival of this goddess, our lives changed. There is no bigger relationship than that with a sister.” We also see the contestants singing songs on Raksha Bandhan for the special episode.
