Akshay Kumar confronted a fan in London for filming him without consent, later cooled down and posed for a selfie.
Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, who’s known for keeping his cool in public, was recently seen in a rare moment of frustration when a fan began filming him without permission during his stroll through the streets of London. A video capturing the tense interaction has gone viral on social media, showing the actor visibly irritated and confronting the fan. Dressed in a printed grey sleeveless T-shirt, black shorts, and a beanie, Akshay was taking a solo walk when he was suddenly approached and recorded without consent.
In the clip, Akshay can be seen turning towards the fan, visibly upset by the intrusion. In fact, he even tried to snatch the phone out of the fan’s hand, clearly uncomfortable with the unsolicited attention. However, the moment didn’t escalate further. The situation cooled off quickly, and in a surprising turn, Akshay was later seen obliging the same fan with a selfie – suggesting the issue was swiftly resolved.

The video has since sparked a wider conversation on social media, with users debating the lack of boundaries fans sometimes cross with public figures.
Many supported Akshay’s reaction, emphasizing the importance of respecting celebrities’ personal space. One user wrote, “When will people have the civic sense not to film someone without their consent? It’s a shameful act.”
Another added, “Kabhi toh normal insaan jaise treat karo unhe?” while a third remarked, “Not everything needs to be turned into content.”
Some also pointed out the need to respect celebrities’ privacy, especially in public places. “Why do you publicly take someone’s photo without asking? They have a private life, let it be private,” wrote a user. Another chimed in, “Every moment doesn’t need to be filmed. Respect his space.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Akshay Kumar has a busy slate ahead. He will next be seen in ‘Bhooth Bangla’ alongside Wamiqa Gabbi and Paresh Rawal. The much-awaited ‘Hera Pheri 3’ is also finally in the works again after a recent controversy. Other titles on his upcoming roster include ‘Welcome to the Jungle’, ‘Jolly LLB 3’ and ‘Haiwaan’.
