Who said he didn't enough credit for Special 26 or OMG? Those movies didn't get numbers because they weren't promoted well. I got to know about Special 26 when it came & went. OMG- they didn't promote it as a Akshay Kumar film it was a Paresh Rawal film. AK had an extended cameo, & the role was totally worth it. He was irreplaceable in the film- his aura, charm , effortlessness during dialogue delivery and comic timing ; no Khan could've matched it.
He does different characters & satisfies the 'actor' in himself- Box office collections ka kya achaar daalna hai 😆 I'd still see a Welcome, OMG, Namastey London, Bhool Bhulaiya on TV again than Jai ho, Kick, HNY or Dhoom 3 😆
In the end he is going to age gracefully like Amitabh & still look like a million bucks rather than sagging or bloating 😳
I find him a better actor than the Khan's & enjoy watching his comedy movies and serious ones! If somebody has a lesser box office collection or fans than Khan's doesn't make him less superior, it makes him right up there cause he is still the only one 'Kumar' being compared with the three khans 😆
