Mumbai, May 22 - Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has opened up on the failure of his recent movie, "Bachchhan Paandey". The failure of the movie did shock the film industry as Akshay is one of the biggest stars in the country and has had one of the best success ratios among the top-tier actors.
During a recent interview with IndiaToday, Akshay was asked about "Bachchan Pandey" and whether its failure has affected his choices. For the unversed, BP is the remake of the 2014 Tamil film "Jigarthanda".
"Dealing with failure is the same. I've not just had 13-14 flops, there was again a time in the middle where my 8-9 films flopped. I always say you can feel bad for a flop from Friday to Sunday, on Monday you have to pick yourself up and go do another film and be very happy on the set. You can't carry around your sad face everywhere", Akshay said.
During the covid-19 pandemic, the Hindi remakes of South Indian movies haven't worked at the box office as the audience is already exposed to the dubbed versions of those films, thanks to the TV and OTT revolution. It has been made perception that Bollywood shouldn't do remakes, however, Akshay thinks otherwise. The "Sooryavanshi" actor believes that there is no problem in remaking a good movie.
"I was recently questioned why I am doing two remakes. To which I say, why shouldn't I? What is the problem with it? My 'Oh My God' was remade in Telugu, the film worked here as well as there, I did their 'Rowdy Rathore', it worked there as well as here. So, why does anyone have an issue with that? If there is a good south Indian film and we are taking the rights and remaking here, what's the issue? People are saying we don't have talent here, of course, we have talent here, but if we have liked a story then why can't we remake it in Hindi?"
Akshay is currently waiting for the release of his magnum opus "Prithviraj", which is scheduled to release on June 3rd in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.
