An old celebrity compliment is having an unexpected second life. Akshay Kumar’s October 24, 2024, post praising NVIDIA chief Jensen Huang is back in circulation following the tech tycoon’s resignation as CEO amid a personal scandal.
Akshay had met Huang at the inaugural NVIDIA AI Summit in Mumbai, where an encounter between Bollywood and Silicon Valley took an unexpectedly playful turn. The two posed together in mock martial arts stances, prompting the actor to share the photograph on X. “Imagine meeting the world’s biggest authority on Artificial Intelligence and ending up chatting about martial arts! What an amazing man you are Mr. #JensenHuang. Now I know why @nvidia is the absolute giant that it is,” Akshay wrote.
Two years later, the post has acquired an unintended comic afterlife. Social media users are revisiting the photograph and caption, adding their own sarcastic spin. One viral taunt reads: “Akshay, now the whole world knows why NVIDIA is the absolute giant.”
The meme frenzy has taken a distinctly Bollywood turn, with AI-generated edits recasting Huang in familiar film scenes. Akshay’s own Khiladi image has also been pulled into the jokes, with one social media quip suggesting that while he may be Bollywood’s Khiladi, Huang is the real AI-world player.
