Akshay honours his work commitment despite Twinkle's surgery

Akshay Kumar ensured he didn't miss out on being present at a fashion event sponsored by a brand he endorses even as wife Twinkle Khanna underwent surgery for kidney stone at a hospital

Akshay Kumar's wife, Twinkle Khanna, has been admitted in Breach Candy Hospital. The former actress and mother of two has been apparently diagnosed with kidney stone.

A source says that Twinkle, who was in pain all of Sunday morning, had to be rushed to the hospital for treatment. This development then threatened to jeopardise Akki’s appearance at a derby event at Mahalaxmi Race Course. First, there was word that Akshay, who was scheduled to attend a fashion show at the derby on Sunday, had cancelled his appearance as he wished to be with Twinkle at the hospital.

But later it emerged that the actor had decided to honour his commitment to the brand he is an ambassador for (the brand is the title sponsor of the event).

Meanwhile, hospital sources say that it was Akshay who accompanied Twinkle to the hospital earlier on Sunday. Preliminary tests allegedly revealed that she had kidney stone and she has now been advised to go for surgery.
