Here's Why Akshay Kumar Chose Kapil Sharma Over Comedy Nights Bachao

Akshay Kumar and Jacqueline Fernandez have refused to visit ‘Comedy Nights Bachao’ for promoting their films Rustom and Dishoom respectively.

The actors have chosen The Kapil Sharma Show over Comedy Nights Bachao has apparently because of the treatment of Lisa Haydon on the show.

According to source, “Jacqueline was extremely offended by Team Bachao’s racist remarks towards her ‘Housefull 3’ colleague Lisa Haydon; she felt that a lot of Lisa’s portions were edited meanly in a way that only the ‘insult’ remained and not the comedy. So, while she didn’t stage a walkout during her ‘Housefull 3’ promotions, Jacqueline was surely in no mood to do an encore for Dishoom.” 

And following Jacqueline's Akshay Kumar -- who was also part of Housefull 3 -- have joined the band-wagon.

The actors are so furious at the Krushna Abhishek & Co. that they are convincing Rustom and Dishoom's team to follow their lead.

There are also reports that ‘Dishoom’ co-stars Varun Dhawan and John Abraham too have already sided with Jacqueline on this issue. “There is a very strong buzz about Dishoom and nonsensical insult is the last thing that the film’s team wants to hear," the source said.
