It is an important day for Maharashtra as voting for the 288 assembly seats has started today, i.e., on Wednesday, November 20, 2024. To fulfill the civic duty, Bollywood celebrities including Akshay Kumar, Rajkummar Rao, and Farhan Akhtar, among others, stepped out to cast their vote.

It comes as no surprise that Akshay Kumar was among the early voters for the assembly elections in Mumbai. The Khel Khel Mein actor was spotted leaving the polling station. After exiting the voting center, Kumar flaunted his inked finger in front of the paparazzi and humbly spoke to a senior citizen standing outside the station.

After casting his vote, Khiladi Kumar also appreciated the arrangements made by the Elections Commission of India (ECI) at the center for voters and specifically for senior citizens. While speaking to the media, he said, ''The best thing is that the arrangements are very good. I can see that arrangements for senior citizens are very good and cleanliness has been maintained. Everyone should come and vote because that is the most important thing.''
