Actor Akshay Kumar, who has been working in Hindi cinema for almost three decades now, recently shared a harrowing story about his 13-year-old daughter, who was harassed online while playing a video game. Akshay shared that his daughter immediately went and told her mother, Twinkle Khanna, about it. After sharing his ordeal, Akshay requested Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to introduce a “cyber period” in schools as children must be equipped with handling such incidents online. In a video shared by ANI, Akshay can be heard saying, “I want to tell you all about a small incident which happened at my house a few months back. My daughter was playing a video game, and there are some video games that you can play with someone. You are playing with an unknown stranger. While you are playing, sometimes a message comes from there.Then a message comes asking, ‘Are you male or female?’ So she replied female. And then they sent another message, ‘Can you send me nude pictures of yours?’” Akshay shared that his 13-year-old instantly shut everything off and ran towards her mother to tell her what had just happened. “It was my daughter. She switched off the whole thing and she went and told my wife,” he said. Akshay said that this is also a part of cybercrime and said that this is starting to get more dangerous than the crime on the streets. #WATCH | Mumbai | Actor Akshay Kumar says, "I want to tell you all a small incident which happened at my house a few months back.
