Akshay Kumar says reflecting on his journey – “The challenge lies in maintaining yourself. Maintaining yourself in the industry is a big challenge. You will not believe that entering the film industry is still easier, but to maintain yourself in the industry and to keep up and cope up with everything going on, and be there in the industry, is a very difficult job.”
Akshay Kumar shares – “I follow what my father taught me — keep working hard. Kal ki chinta na karo, aapne aap sab kuch theek hona shuru ho jayega (Stop worrying about the future, everything will get sorted out).”
Akshay Kumar continues and says – “A lot of times, I have seen how the movie that I know is not good works. On the other hand there are times when I know the film is good, and yet it doesn’t work. God has his own way of working and rewarding you. Jahaan dena hai wahaan kabhi kabhi nahi deta aur jahaan nahi dena wahaan de deta hai.”
Today, Akshay Kumar has developed a reputation of backing stories that have hues of patriotism and nationalism, besides films with socially-relevant content. “I do films that are responsible and also the films that are commercial. I am not a teacher. I do films I like, and the messages I like. Sometimes there is a message, and sometimes there is no message. I do different types of films and I want to continue doing them in the future,” he continued.
“I don’t want to be a teacher,” the superstar asserted, adding: “I get associated with the message I believe in. I made a film on sanitary pads, and did one on the importance of toilets. (I) Also made one on science. I have made different types of films. There is also Housefull, which has no message, and where the message is just to laugh,” added the actor, who was last seen in Laxmii, which was released on OTT.
