Akshay's post, however, did not cut ice with Netizens who promptly labelled it as disrespect to the India map. Akshay Kumar’s ‘The Entertainers’ Promo Leaves Twitterati Outraged After Actor Is Seen ‘Stepping on India’ (Watch Video).

The video also features actresses Disha Patani, Mouni Roy, Nora Fatehi, and Sonam Bajwa. Fortunately for them, they were not walking on the India map and so they escaped Akshay's fate. The video was made to promote the North America Tour of the stars in March this year. Sharing the video, Akshay had tweeted, "The entertainers are all set to bring 100 per cent shuddh desi entertainment to North America.
