Raksha Bandhan, the festival celebrating the bond between brothers and sisters, is being observed with great enthusiasm across the country. Celebrities, too, partake in the festivities and share their moments with fans on social media. Akshay Kumar, Bollywood’s ‘Khiladi,’ is no exception. While he often makes headlines for his professional achievements, his personal life, especially his unique relationships, also captures public attention.
Akshay Kumar recently surprised fans with a cameo in “Stree 2,” but another reason he’s in the limelight is his connection with TV actress Rupali Ganguly, whom he considers his sister.
This bond was highlighted during the 2022 Star Plus show “Ravivaar with Star Parivaar,” where Akshay revealed that Rupali used to tie him rakhi every year for five consecutive years, starting in 1992.
During the show, Rupali got emotional and expressed her affection for Akshay, promising to continue the tradition. The actor even touched her feet, symbolizing his respect and deep bond with her.
This heartwarming connection between Akshay and Rupali reflects the true essence of Raksha Bandhan, where the bond of love and protection transcends blood relations.
