Akshay Kumar's films are a hit at the box office:
There was a time when Akshay Kumar ruled the box office. Akshay Kumar releases 3-4 films in a year and most of them are hits. However, for the last 3-4 years, Akshay Kumar's films have not been able to do anything special at the box office. Akshay Kumar's recently released multi-starrer film 'Khel-Khel Mein' also could not earn much. Earlier, Akshay Kumar was also seen in the Hindi remake of the Tamil hit film 'Soorarai Potran', 'Sarafira'. Surya also won the National Award for this film. However, this Hindi film made with Akshay Kumar on a budget of 100 crores could barely earn 30 crores in 12 days. Earlier, many films like Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Bell Bottom, Ram Setu, Samrat Prithviraj, Rakshabandhan and Selfie have performed very poorly at the box office.

Let us tell you that this is Akshay Kumar's first Telugu film. However, Akshay starred in the bilingual film 'Ashanti' in 1993, which was released in Kannada as 'Vishnu Vijaya'.
