Akshay himself or his representatives are yet to comment or confirm this development though. Apart from standing by the on-going social media campaigns, Akshay started his own '#DilSeThankYou' campaign where he held a placard reading the words and offered his gratitude to public servants like the Mumbai Police, the BMC workers, doctors, nurses and NGOs who are out there providing their services to the needy and helping in testing times that the Coronavirus pandemic is having us face.
