Actress Akansha Ranjan Kapoor was recently seen casting her vote for the 2024 United States elections, causing netizens to speculate about her citizenship. The ‘Monica, O My Darling’ star, who is also known to be superstar Alia Bhatt’s bestie, took to Instagram to reveal that she had cast her vote in the US Presidential Election, also hinting at her preferred candidate.
In a video shared on her Instagram Stories, Akansha proudly displayed her "I Voted" sticker and included a gif featuring Kamala Harris, suggesting she supports the Democratic Vice President. This post has seemingly confirmed that Akansha holds American, not Indian, citizenship, surprising many online users who assumed the Mumbai-based actress was an Indian citizen.
A Reddit thread titled “Akansha Ranjan Kapoor is a US citizen??” quickly gained traction, with users expressing surprise and discussing other India-based celebrities with foreign citizenship. Notable examples included Akshay Kumar, who recently renounced his Canadian citizenship, and Alia Bhatt, who holds a British passport.
The 2024 US election is shaping up to be a close contest between Republican leader Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
