Amid the ongoing debate around the rise of paparazzi culture and the increasingly blurred lines of celebrity privacy, Akshay Kumar has weighed in with his take. The actor said he doesn’t view the constant attention as an occupational hazard and has no issue with paparazzi clicking his pictures.
Twinkle and Akshay have been married since January 2001; they share two children – son Aarav and daughter Nitara.
Akshay on privacy
On Saturday, Akshay joined India Today Conclave Delhi 2026 for a session titled The Khiladi: Method Behind the Hit Machine. At the session, Akshay was asked about the paparazzi culture.
He was asked, “Are you okay with it if they intervene in your privacy, try and take pictures of you, Twinkle and the kids? Or does it trouble you? Do you believe that the media should allow you to have your space?”
To this, Akshay said, “Dekhiye, jab main airport se utrunga, kabhi meri wife sath mein hoti hai ya kabhi bache, toh woh photo lena chahenge. Ek photographer ko meri photo leneke kariban ₹3,500-4,000 milte hain. Aur agar usko milte hain, toh mujhe kya problem honi chahiye? Meri sherwani mein kya pareshaani honi chahiye ki main khada ho ke photo le lu?”
Akshay continued, “Meri photo leke uss bechare ka ghar chal jaayega, woh khush ho jayega.. Aur kya ho jayaga. Kya privacy? Ismein koi buri baat nahi hai. Agar aap bahar nikale ho bachun ke saath aur biwi ke saath, toh kis baat ki privacy?”
It translates to, “Look, when I step out of the airport, sometimes my wife is with me or sometimes my children are. Photographers would naturally want to take pictures. A photographer earns around ₹3,500–4,000 for clicking my photo. If they are earning that, why should I have a problem? What’s the issue for me to simply stand there in my sherwani and let them take a picture? If someone can run his household by taking my photo, that person will be happy. What privacy are we talking about? There’s nothing wrong in it. If you’ve stepped out in public…
