Akshay Kumar's Starpower..overrated?

Originally posted by: cougarTown

His movies are merely hitting 100cr despite being a holiday release

His recent Gold released on independence day and is finishing with lifetime of 100cr

padman could not even get past 80

and he has yet to cross 150cr lifetime

he is a superstar for sure but is his stardom overrated? the numbers are pretty much beaten by many actors who came much after him

Yes and No

He is far more consistent than the younger lot and even Salman and Ajay. He has a strong and loyal fanbase particularly in the North. Almost everything he does crosses 100 cr.

But I don't think he is some crazy big star and can't be clubbed with Khans. The biggest hits were all with Katrina. And Katrina definitely had a part there. I think him and Katrina together should do a film. Might give him a 150 cr hit finally.

I think the key to this is that he never stopped working...he is just hitting all birds with every stone he can land his hand on...

Gold's second day was a regular Thursday while Stree's second day is a Saturday.

And no there is still audience who likes the movies he does. So I hope he does what he does the best, mix up genres and keep both mass and class audience happy.
