WEB DESK: Social media shows no mercy on anyone and this time, the Khiladi of Bollywood, Akshay Kumar came under severe attacks by people/fans. 

Yesterday, Women World Cup finale was played between Indian and England's cricket teams. Although, the excitement and thrill was there until the Hey Baby star posted a picture holding Indian flag upside down.

As soon as the picture hit twitter, people/fans lost their cool and started to bash him.

This is what @akshaykumar learned from @narendramodi and the same he will teach to his children.#AkshayKumar #INDvENG #WWC17Final pic.twitter.com/zTti8yQ5iE

However, later, the actor took a humble step, he apologized and removed the image. His post reads, Extending my sincerest apology for violating the code of conduct for the tricolor. Didn't mean to offend anyone,the picture has been removed.
