Why Akshay Kumar left the set of the Bigg Boss 18 grand finale
As per the sources, when the show started, Veer Pahariya arrived on set to assist Salman in announcing the elimination of Eisha Singh as the first eviction of the grand finale.
According to Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar was on set promoting his upcoming movie, but he had to leave because he (Salman) was late and Akshay had other work commitments. Salman khan said, “Akki (Akshay Kumar) is also in the film. I got a little late, and he had to leave for another function, so he left.” HT City had previously revealed that Akshay's leaving was due to test screenings for Jolly LLB 3, one of his other movies.
A source told HT City, adding that despite repeated demands for him to come back, he refused, “Being as punctual as he is, Akshay turned up on the set for his shoot at the scheduled time, around 2.15 pm. But Salman hadn't come by then. Akshay waited an hour for Salman to come, but he had a trial screening of Jolly LLB 3 in his schedule. Thus, after waiting for an hour, Akshay returned without even shooting for the show".
