The idol, a huge one designed in contemporary style, was sent by Sholapur's Khiladi Group.
Excited and thrilled, the actor immediately expressed his gratitude to the group - it consists of around 350 members -- on social media. He tweeted:
Well, Akshay, this is just the right gift to receive during Ganeshotsav. What makes it even more special is the fact that it has come from your fans.
