Former Indian spinner Amit Mishra jumped into Akshay Kumar's defence after the actor was trolled for his reply to Richa Chadha's tweet on Indian Army.
Former Indian spinner Amit Mishra is very active on Twitter and he kept his followers updated on various things related to cricket and non-cricket as well. Recently, Mishra jumped into Akshay Kumar's defence, after the Bollywood actor was trolled by fans for his reaction to Richa Chadha's controversial tweet on the Indian Army.
The Indian spin-wizard had earlier slammed Chadha for her reply which didn't go down well with many Indians as it appeared to defame and demean the Indian Army.
Akshay Kumar had also called out Chadha for her tweet on the controversial issue, which led to the actor himself being trolled instead, for holding Canadian citizenship, but Mishra has slammed the veteran actor's critics, schooling them 'hounding those who stand with Indian Army'.

She pointed out the volatile situation at Galwan valley wherein Indian and Chinese forces are currently at loggerheads.
Chadha was subsequently slammed by Akshay who posted a screenshot of her tweet and wrote, "Hurts to see this. Nothing ever should make us ungrateful towards our armed forces. Woh hain toh aaj hum hain."
