Ranveer has been known to shake things up a bit every once in a while.

Everyone who knows Akshay  Kumar, even remotely, would know he leads an addiction-free life — no late nights, no partying, no drinking, and no smoking.

So, it had come as quite a shock for his fans when he danced to the hedonistic track Hookah Bar, a song from his 2012 film Khiladi 786, since it blatantly promotes smoking. The track became quite a hit, even while the film was disastrous at the box office.

Now, four years later, Akshay  was seen dancing to the same rather inappropriate track at a wedding with Ranveer Singh for company. The video went viral, even in dry states like Gujarat and Bihar.

Ranveer has been known to shake things up a bit every once in a while. But we wonder what prompted Akshay, who propagates values of patriotism and decency, whose heart bleeds for our soldiers, and whose blood boils when women are molested, to agree to dance at a wedding, and that too croon a song that endorses the intake of hookah fumes.
