Akshay Kumar Won A National Award And Twitter Became As Sarcastic As Chandler

People could not really digest the fact that Akshay Kumar can win a National Award. Not because they doubt the actor’s talent. But people on Twitter found it very hard to believe that he could have won it for a movie like ‘Rustom’.

He did get a lot of praise from all his fans and even from his wife Twinkle Khanna. But like any achievement, there will always be a section of people who will not let it go without a joke.

And the jokes on Akshay Kumar were really, really good.

1. Good wordplay there.

Akshay Kumar is definitely a good actor but giving national award for Rustom is more like a reward not award.

2. The Canadian citizen reference was not missed.

Big day for Canada, one of it's citizen , @akshaykumar won India's National Award for acting. Congratulations @JustinTrudeau

3. This guy pointed out the many times Akshay Kumar had PR sessions with the jawans.

Next national award winner movie will have just one line in script, "Soldiers are dying on border and you want to watch movies?"

8. Another Kejriwal reference

Akshay wins National Award for acting as Rustom.
Kejriwal wins National Award for acting as Chhupa Rustom, hiding all his frauds as a CM.

9. Saif Ali Khan’s award was a bit surprising TBH

Akshay Kumar got National Award for Rustom. Saif Ali Khan today must be feeling proud of the National Award he got for Hum Tum.

10. It’s a valid point. Which award is a sham?

11. LOL

Akshay Kumar getting the national award instead of Aamir Khan. This is how GEN category people feel everyday while competing with quota guys

12. WTF?!

People cribbing about Akki winning the National Award don't realise who he edged out by just two votes. pic.twitter.com/ZU2aYSGrmz

13. Another subtle reference to Akshay cozying up with the ruling party.

16. Sure he should have.

17. It may be.

Whether he deserved it or not is moot at this point.

But it is interesting to see all the humorous perspective Twitter has to present to the Internet.
