“He abused once, and I told him not to. He did it again. Then a third time. I kept warning him four or five times, but he just wouldn’t stop,” Akshay remembered. Unable to tolerate the repeated insult, Akshay decided to get involved and even slapped the person in the heat of the moment.
However, unfortunately, the person went unconscious. “It was a very big party. My friend had actually started crying because it was extremely embarrassing for him," he revealed.

“We poured water on him, and I was praying that he would regain consciousness. Oh my God,” he admitted. Thankfully, the person regained consciousness.
Looking back on the incident, Akshay acknowledged it as a mistake, saying, “Had it been today, I would never react like that. For me, that was the real ‘Gajab Beizzati’ moment, something I would want to change if I could. Today, I would simply walk away.” This special episode of the show "Wheel of Fortune" will air on 16th February on Sony Entertainment Television at 9 PM and will also stream on Sony LIV!
