Akshay Kumar has once again become the highest taxpayer from the entertainment industry. The Income Tax department has also given the actor a Samman Patra, an honour certificate. As per reports, Akshay Kumar has retained the title of the highest taxpayer for the past five years.
AKSHAY KUMAR BECOMES TOP TAXPAYER
Since Akshay Kumar is currently shooting in the UK, his team accepted the honour certificate from the Income Tax Department on his behalf. It is not a big surprise as the actor has consistently been among India’s biggest taxpayers over the previous five years. According to Pinkvilla, “He has the maximum number of films today, as well as ruling the endorsement world. It’s no surprise for him to feature in the highest taxpayer list of India.” The honorary certificate for Akshay Kumar has already gone viral on social media.
ON THE WORK FRONT
Akshay Kumar is currently filming in the UK alongside Tinu Desai. He was last seen in Samrat Prithviraj co-starring Manushi Chhillar. However, the film received mixed reviews and failed to attract the audience to the theatres. The actor has multiple releases in the coming months including Raksha Bandhan, followed by Ram Setu and Selfie. There’s also Oh My God 2 in his pipeline. Recently, Akshay was seen as a guest on Karan Johar’s Koffee With Karan Season 7 with Samantha Ruth Prabhu.
