After a priests' association called Akshay Kumar's Shivling hugging scene in the song 'Mahakal Chalo' "inappropriate", the actor said there is "nothing offensive in it". "Since childhood, my parents taught me...God is our mother and father. So, if you hug your parents, what is wrong with that?" he asked. Akshay added, "If someone misunderstands my devotion, it's not my fault."
