Akshay Kumar breaks silence over consecutive failures. Selfiee, Akshay Kumar‘s latest Bollywood film, got off to a slow start at the box office. The Raj Mehta-directed film generated a lot of buzz. Despite positive reviews from critics, the film has underperformed.
Selfiee appears to have joined Akshay Kumar‘s long list of box office duds. Kumar had a difficult year in 2022 because he delivered a string of flop projects. The actor has finally spoken out about it. In an exclusive interview with AajTak, Akshay admitted that the film’s failure was his fault.
Speaking exclusively with AajTak, Akshay opened up about his consecutive flop films. To this, he said, “This is not happening to me for the first time. In my career, I have had 16 consecutive flops at a time. There was a time when I had eight films in a row that did not work. Now, I have had three-four films in a row that did not work. The thing is that it happens due to your own fault, film ka na chalna (a film not working). The audience has changed, you need to change, and you need to dismantle yourself. You have to start again because the audience requires you to see something else.”
Akshay further mentioned, “Aapki film nahi chal rahi to galti aapki hai. When your films flop in a row, it is an alarm for you that it is time for you to change. Mai koshish kar raha hun, wahi kar sakta hoon Do not blame the audience or anyone else. It is my fault, 100%. Aapki film na chalna is not because of audience. It is because of what you selected. Maybe you have not given the right ingredients in the film.”
