Akshay Kumar Explains Exit from Bigg Boss 18 Finale, Says Salman Khan Was Delayed
The grand finale of Bigg Boss 18 on January 19 was a star-studded event, featuring Aamir Khan, Khushi Kapoor, Veer Pahariya, and more. Akshay Kumar, who was expected to promote his upcoming film Sky Force, also made an appearance but left the set without filming his segment.
At a recent press conference in Delhi, Akshay clarified the reason behind his sudden exit. He revealed that Salman Khan, the show’s host, was delayed due to a personal matter. “I was running late for another commitment. Salman was stuck with something personal and told me he’d be late by 40 minutes. Unfortunately, I couldn’t wait and had to leave,” Akshay explained.
Salman addressed the situation during the finale, saying, “Akshay was here to promote his movie but had to leave for another event since I was delayed.” Reports also suggest that Akshay had to attend test screenings for Jolly LLB 3.
Despite the missed opportunity, Akshay confirmed there are no hard feelings between him and Salman. “We spoke about it, and all is well,” he added. Also Read:-Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli’s Luxurious Alibaug Holiday Home: A Peek Inside
