Not all films need to make 500Cr to be considered good or whatever. He is the ONLY one of the older brigade that actually bothers to balance his films out now. He does many films a year..it would help to cut down, but still at least 1 is worth watching in the year...which most of the time is more than can be said for others. Sure his films could make more money, but his contribution over the year is more or less the same as the other big stars giving 1 film.

Akshay needs to seriously slow down with his 5 films per year. If he's such a workaholic then maybe he should get into business or other aspects of film-making. It's like he's there every two months in the theatres so people aren't excited to watch him. Exclusivity is extremely important in his case.

What he lacks is that he does not promote himself - he has no 'Satyamev Jayate" or " Being Human".



He tried but failed.

He started some self defense school for girls, a Karate tournament.

But all efforts failed to get him publicity.

One needs tact which he obviously lacks both in choice of films and attempts to build a brand.

BTW, Aamir and Salman films were breaking records even without Being Human and SMJ.

SRK also has no charity but is far bigger than so called "no less than Khans" superstar Akshay Kumar!

His Baby and Gabbar are also not clean hits. Mere coverage stuff isn't hit.

He was, he is and will always be behind Khans.

Rest if he keeps doing Baby 2, 3, 4, 5, only his babies will watch his films in Cinema Hall, no one else will.


LMFAO 😆

Though I like some of his serious movies from Special 26 to Baby. So OT, nothing wrong. He should continue balancing the kinda movies he's doing. Comedy, serious, action, different varieties. I like that about him than blinding aping others for BO #s like Crappy Saggy Khan...

He may not be at the TOP but he is certainly ONE of the top actors of the country. He's also one of the richest, and Forbes recently confirmed that, he made more money in 2015 than many big shot Hollywood celebs, I doubt you can call that a "failure"

Box office performance is not everythign!
