Akshay Kumar takes a Mumbai Metro ride with producer Dinesh Vijan

In a surprising occurrence, Bollywood star Akshay Kumar was recently spotted travelling in the Mumbai Metro along with producer Dinesh Vijan. Needless to say, this received a lot of attention online since it was captured on video by a fellow passenger. The video was quickly circulated online, drawing several reactions from fans.

Akshay Kumar’s low-key Metro ride

Akshay was spotted wearing a black jacket, styled with black pyjamas, a matching black hat and a white cap. The video swiftly made its way to various Akshay Kumar fan pages on social media.

Reposting the video on X, a user wrote, “He is a most humble and down to earth Superstar. He was seen on his way to work in Mumbai metro, away from heavy traffic, with Dinesh Vijan.”

Another user appreciated him for choosing to go by public transport instead of being stuck in Mumbai's traffic. The user wrote, “#AkshayKumar sir is so down to earth by choosing to travel through metro and not being stuck in Mumbai traffic.”

Akshay Kumar has travelled by Metro earlier as well

This is not the first time that Akshay has travelled by metro. While promoting his 2023 film Selfiee, Akshay and his co-actor, Emraan Hashmi, took a ride on the metro. But back then, the actors were accompanied by their security team and were seen dancing along with fellow passengers.

Other Bollywood celebs who have taken a metro ride

Last year, Commando actor Vidyut Jammwal was spotted taking a metro ride to go back home after a long day of shooting. Dream Girl Hema Malini also took a metro ride last year when she was going back home. Speaking about her experience, the actress said, "Mujhe bhi laga Mumbai ki nagrik hone ke naate metro ka use aap bhi kar sakte he. Saare kalakar ko bhi use karni chahiye... to avoid the traffic jam.” (I felt that, as a citizen of Mumbai, I should also use the metro. Other artists should also travel by metro to avoid traffic jams).”
