Akshay Kumar's latest film, Sarfira, was released on July 12 and also features Radhika Madan and Paresh Rawal. The actor has been busy with the film's promotions. During a chat on Sarfiri Baatein ft. Ghazal Alagh, Akshay asked the entrepreneur, "Has anybody in your business cheated you?" Akshay then went on to narrate how he too was 'cheated' on after Ghazal said 'cheating is not acceptable'.

'I just don't talk to the person who cheats me'

The actor said, without taking any names, "This is the something we have in common. Main uske baad main usse baat hi nahin karta, chup ho jaata hoon apna side mein nikal jaata hoon... ek do producers ki payment nahin aati hain and that is cheating only... (I just don't talk to that person, who cheats me. I go quiet.. it has happened to me. A few producers haven't cleared my dues)."
