Akshay Kumar
Khiladi Kumar stars of Bollywood i.e. Akshay Kumar, who works in many films every year, is in trouble since the start of Corona epidemic in the year 2020. Every film he does bombs. Be it genre, budget or star cast, Akshay’s film comes and falls flat. Now once again Akshay Kumar is making a comeback at the box office with a new film. But this time the road is going to be tougher for them. This is because Akshay’s film ‘Khel Khel Mein’ will face tough competition from films like Stree 2 and Veda.
Advance booking figures reveal that Akshay Kumar is second in the three Bollywood films releasing on August 15. Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s Stree 2 is expected to get a bumper opening. It is being said that more than Rs 14 crore tickets of the film have been sold in advance on the first day. John Abraham’s Veda has earned an advance of Rs 80 lakh on the first day itself. Akshay’s ‘Khel Khel Mein’ tickets worth Rs 82.58 lakh have been booked in advance so far. In such a situation, it is clear that the game lags far behind Stree 2.
Who got attention after Corona?
It’s not just ‘Khel Khel Mein’ that didn’t get a good response. Actually, Akshay Kumar’s films have stopped running after the corona epidemic in the year 2020. Akshay’s career before and after Corona is very surprising. Akshay Kumar acted in 17 films between 2015 and 2019. He had only one film flop during this period. Four films were semi-hits, five films were hits, four films were average and three films were superhits. Akshay Kumar was dominant at that time. Whatever film he appeared in, it was released. But Corona came. The entire industry was closed. Movies were not coming to theaters. And all this had the biggest impact on Akshay Kumar.
