New Delhi: On April 21, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar posted a cryptic tweet that sent the entire 'Twitterverse' in a tizzy and sparked intense speculation on the motive behind the tweet. "Getting into an unknown and uncharted territory today. Doing something I have never done before. Excited and nervous both. Stay tuned for updates," posted Kumar in the middle of election fever in India.

The tweet ballooned to over a 1000 retweets and even more 'likes' within a matter of minutes. Most speculated that Akshay Kumar had decided to take the political plunge, much like his 'Aflatoon' co-star Urmilla Matondkar did when she joined the Congress a few weeks ago.
