Daily Inspiration Quote by Akshay Kumar

"It takes two hands to clap! I cannot be solely blamed for what happened in my relationships! If things soured, it happened because of both parties. Not just me!"

About this Quote

“It takes two hands to clap” is the kind of folk wisdom that doubles as a shield: simple, familiar, hard to argue with without sounding unfair. Akshay Kumar reaches for it here to reframe relationship fallout as a shared system failure rather than a personal indictment. The intent is clear damage control, but it’s also a bid for moral symmetry in a culture that loves a single villain.

The subtext is less about accountability and more about narrative power. Celebrity relationships aren’t just private experiences; they’re public scripts, edited by gossip columns, fan loyalties, and the star’s own carefully maintained image. By insisting he can’t be “solely blamed,” Kumar isn’t only defending himself against an ex or a rumor mill - he’s arguing against the public’s habit of treating romantic collapse like a courtroom verdict. The repetition (“not just me!”) carries the emotional heat of someone talking past the interviewer to the wider audience already convinced they know the story.

There’s a strategic slipperiness in the phrasing, too: “both parties” is equitable, but also vague. It doesn’t name specific actions, harms, or lessons learned; it flattens messy asymmetries into a 50-50 principle. That’s why it lands with fans who want permission to keep admiring him, and why it can irritate skeptics who hear an evasion dressed up as common sense.

In the context of Bollywood’s star ecosystem, the line functions like a brand-preserving mantra: relatable, deflective, and just firm enough to shut down further cross-examination.
