Akshay Kumar debuted in 1987 with a minor role in Aaj. The actor, who once used to break box office records with back-to-back films, struggles to have a decent hit film.
The actor did around 140 films in his film career of 36 years and is known for social messages and inspirational movies. He has now lost his hit track films. The actor who once used to rule the box office is now struggling to achieve breakeven. The Indian government awarded the actor Padma Sri for his contribution to Hindi cinema, and he also won a National Award for his performance in films like Kesari and Rustom.
Post covid, the actor failed to deliver a single hit film and didn’t deliver a single film with a promising performance. The actor charges approx Rs 50 crores per movie and barely acts. It is reported that the actor charged approximately rs 50 crores for Samrat Prithviraj and refused to grow a moustache for the film. He didn’t contribute anything to the film. The old days of transforming with character aesthetics are gone, and people are now expecting authentic and raw filmmaking and great performances from actors and directors.
The bare body transformation and character aesthetics are not enough as the film audience expects commitment and authentic acting from the actor. Akshay Kumar is failing in every bit of it. The actor didn’t contribute anything to Samrat Prithviraj’s film. Akshay lacks genuine acting in Raksha Bandhan, Cuttputlli, Ran Setu, Selfie, Bachchan Pandey, and Mission Raniganj. The actor hasn’t had any promising performances since COVID-19 and needs to update his acting skills. He needs to focus on acting and performance rather than just charging some crores for the bare minimum acting. The actor’s remuneration often increases the film’s budget, and most movies fail to earn breakeven.
Akshay Kumar had a versatile upcoming films including Vedat Marathe Veer Daudle Saat, Sky Force, Shankara, and Shetty’s directorial Singham Agai. He is all set to star in Kolywood’s most successful biographical film, Soorarai Pottru.
