On Tuesday night, Akshay Kumar on Twitter declared that he had recorded a candid, informal and freewheeling chat with PM Narendra Modi which would give an insight into certain lesser known facts about him.

The interview went live at 9 AM on news agency ANI’s official site with multiple other publications also live streaming it.

Akshay Kumar chatted with the PM on a range of topics, none political, of course.

The conversation topics ranged from if the PM ate mangoes to if he has seen memes about himself online.

Twitter had a lot to say about the interview. Some tweets were funny. Others critical, while some showered praise.
