Rustom was a very special role to play. Wearing the uniform of Indian Navy was an honour in itself and this National Award has made it even more special.” In his thank you speech, Akshay gave a special mention to his wife Twinkle Khanna as he said, “I will like to thank my wife Twinkle Khanna who used to tease me often as she said that its good that I have stopped attending award functions since I never returned with an award.” Akshay who is shooting with Sonam Kapoor for his next Padman also was happy for his co-star who got a special mention at the National awards.
Earlier he posted a picture with his wife Twinkle Khanna and his son:
