He didn’t mention Akshay Kumar nor compared his effort to any other actor. The idea of him throwing shade seems to be more fan driven than fact based.

Comparisons are being made to Akshay’s recent releases especially Sky Force which had a lower opening. But one big opening defines a career? Akshay is a box office king with decades of consistency.
This isn’t the first time social media has twisted words to create drama. Actors have different approach—Vicky goes deep into roles while Akshay is known for efficiency and speed. Does that mean one is better than the other? Not necessarily.
At the end of the day Chhaava’s success speaks for itself and Vicky deserves the praise. But was there any real insult to Akshay? Unlikely. Looks like another case of the internet making noise over nothing.
