Akshay Kumar was one of the leading actors of Bollywood for many years. He scored several blockbusters as well. However, he lost track with some disastrous flops and found it pretty hard to keep going. He also did multiple projects simultaneously and released them continuously in short intervals. He took compensation exceeding 100 crores as well. Akshay Kumar has become a Producer’s nightmare too.
He recently starred in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan which became a huge disaster at the box office despite a massive budget. Now, his latest film, Sarfira (adaptation of Suriya’s Soorarai Pottru/Aakasam Nee Haddu raa) is premiering tomorrow. However, the advance bookings of the film are not even near to 2 crores in India. These are truly disastrous bookings.
A big positive word of mouth may not draw audiences to the theatres and hence it may end up grossing less than 20 crores in India.This will be a considerable loss considering his remuneration of 100 crores. He is not able to achieve even a 10 crore opening gross at minimum. This is definitely transforming Akshay Kumar into a Producer’s nightmare. He needs to deliver a big comeback to sustain his market in the future.
