'Twinkle didn't attend Dawood's parties'

Bollywood star Akshay Kumar has denied media reports that his wife Twinkle Khanna attended parties hosted by underworld don Dawood Ibrahim in Dubai, terming them as "untrue".

"Woh khabar ek hi din ayi aur bandh ho gayi, na mere ghar par koi CBI ayi, na koi police ayi, aur na hi koi hawaldar aya. Agar isme koi sachayi hoti to koi na koi ghar aa hi gaya hota. (This news was there for a day only. If there was some truth in it, my house would have been raided. But neither did the CBI nor any police or even a constable come to my house for any enquiry)," Akshay told reporters at a press meet on Monday evening.

The actor added that he felt bothered by such reports, but was getting used to it.

"Such kind of gossip and news keep coming up and sometimes it does create difficulties, but slowly you get used to it," he said.
