Akshay Kumar joined Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan to endorse a paan masala brand recently. The actor, who is a fitness enthusiast, was trolled for his choice of brand. Soon, Akshay stepped down from the endorsement and said in a statement, “I am sorry. I would like to apologise to you, all my fans and well-wishers. Your reaction over the past few days has deeply affected me. While I have not and will not endorse tobacco, I respect the outpouring of your feelings in light of my association. With all humility, I step back. I have decided to contribute the entire endorsement fee towards a worthy cause. The brand might continue airing the ads till the legal duration of the contract that is binding upon me, but I promise to be extremely mindful in making my future choices. In return I shall forever continue to ask for your love and wishes.”
