Akshay Kumar reacts to his box office failure

In the trailer launch, the Rustom actor said, “Main ye kehna chahta hoon ki jo hota hai ache ke liye hota hai. Itna main soch vichaar nahi karta. Main batata hoon… jaise ki 4-5 picturein nahi chali aise aise message aate hai jaise ki ‘sorry yaar, lekin tu fikar mat kar, sab thik hojayega’. Arre main mara nahi hu. Wo wale message hote hai na obituary or condolence wale message aate hai. Koi ek journalist ne likh diya, ‘Bhai, don’t worry, you will be back’. Main call karke usko bolta hu bhai back matlab kya, main gaya kaha hu? Idhar hi hun kaam karte rahunga, hamesha kaam karte rahunga chahe koi kuch bhi bole. Jo bhi kamata hu apne dum pe kamata hu. Kisi se kuch maanga nahi hai kabhi. And I will keep on working till they have to shoot me down.

(What I want to say is that whatever happens, happens for the best. I don’t overthink it. Let me tell you… for instance, when 4-5 movies don’t do well, I get messages like ‘Sorry yaar, but don’t worry, everything will be fine’. It’s like they’re sending obituary or condolence messages. A journalist wrote, ‘Brother, don’t worry, you will be back’. I call him and say, “What do you mean by ‘back’? Where have I gone? I’m right here and will keep working, no matter what anyone says. Whatever I earn, I earn on my own. I’ve never asked anyone for anything. And I will keep on working till they have to shoot me down.)
