Akshay Kumar says ‘it’s my fault’ as he takes the blame of his films failure

So far, this year has been not that great for Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar. His movies Bachchhan Paandey, Samrat Prithviraj have tanked at the box office. Also, his recent release, Raksha Bandhan failed to pull audience to theatres. It is still struggling at the ticket windows and most of the shows are also being cancelled due to low footfalls. Today, at an event, the actor addressed the media and opened up on Bollywood films not working.

Akki attended the trailer launch of his upcoming movie Cuttputlli in Mumbai and it was during the press con, he spoke about it.

When Akshay was asked about the poor performance of Bollywood films in recent times and if that’s the reason of actors taking the OTT route, he took the blame on himself for the failure of his films. He said, “If my films are not working, it is our fault, it is my fault. I have to make the changes, I have to understand what the audience wants. I want to make changes, I want to dismantle my way of working and think what kind of films I should be doing. Nobody else is to be blamed but me.”
