Akshay - Only actor who can deliver in all genres?

Only Akshay is the actor who started balancing content-driven and masala entertainers absolutely smoothly and dexterously in Bollywood. He had seen a golden period in 2000's where a lot of his movies released and became hits... Around Singh is King times, I think? He even became the highest tax payer for an year too, right?

He seems to be only actor who used his success to balance all kinds of movies.

I never liked him but I started respecting his work coz he seems to respect and enjoy it unlike the Khans who are so insecure about the number game! And his movies earn profits and makes his producers/distributors happy in most cases.

Yeah, yeah SRK is trying... maybe Aamir too... but even they couldn't strike the balance like akshay did. He comes with at least 2-3 movies a year and they work most of the time!!! His body of work is quite diverse now. And he has become a better actor over the time too.And despite flops n lulls he managed to survive as long as Khans.

Not to instigate wars but he really seems a much more bankable actor who can make ANY genre work... which I can't say about others.

Akshay does more movies. Also he doesn't ensure that his producers recover their money. He asks for a very importante salary.

IMO SRK can do it all too be it comedy, action, romance, drama or thriller. 😊

Can we please praise an actor WITHOUT comparing him with any other? That not only insults the actors but is a discredit to the space they all have earned for themselves.

I love Akhsay Kumar. I think he has transformed into this genuine human being and an extremely banakable actor in recent times. Yes he has cheated a lot but right now, you look at him and you cant help but warm up to his antics. I really wish he has changed for good and cant help but praise twinkle for giving him a chance.

as for his BW works. Akhsay has been the king of action genra, his niche for action movies is what gives him the USP in BW, and in recent times, his masala movies and content driven cinema has just made him emerged as a superstar! He become a success in all genras as the TM said. He practically rose from the dead!

So, a genuine fan of Akhsay Kumar. Not that i enjoy his masala movies, but his achievements are commendable and a lesson too. ❤️

Du I think he has does a lot more movies in a year than the khans. At the moment he is btw comedy and action. He hasn't done an out and out romantic movie in a long time bt neither have the khans. Srk dilwali isn't really considered here. Bt he is a very good actor I love watching his movies coz he is always entertaining. I think in his masala movies he is much better than srk as well. And well I dnt really think much of Mr Stiff Square Box Aamir acting. Only his movies have good content and would still be a good movie with or without him. Bt it gets hype coz he is in it

His versatility is unquestionable but we cannot put our money on Akshay kumar when it comes to recovering the budget...he is not that bankable...
Aamir is versatile too...just see his filmography...

I wouldnt call Aamir versatile... He has good script sense though... Thats why he has some brilliant films in his filmography...

But I dont see Aamir doing comedy, masala and romance and pulling it off successfully..
