Akshay Kumar on what he would do if Chris Rock made a joke about his wife

Akshay Kumar was asked what he would do if Chris Rock, who was infamously slapped by Will Smith at the Oscars 2022 made a joke about his wife, Twinkle Khanna. The actor promptly responded, "I would pay for his funeral". His response left fans and followers stunned online.

His response comes after Chris Rock attempted a joke about Will Smith's wife Jada Pinkett Smith and said she would be part of the next GI Jane film. The joke poked fun at Jada's baldness, which is a result of a medical condition she is dealing with. This is when Will Smith walked up to the stage and slapped the comedian across his face and went back to his seat. He then yelled at Rock from his seat and said, "Keep my wife's name out of your f****** mouth". The incident became the talk of the town, and the Hollywood actor also issued an apology later.
