Earlier this year, Akshay Kumar scored a mega disaster with Bachchan Panday which couldn’t pull the audience to the theaters despite the positive word of mouth. The film was an epic disaster and the fact that it clashed with the mighty RRR didn’t help the cause either.
Now, Akshay Kumar appears to be delivering another mega disaster with his recent release, Samrat Prithviraj which is a big-budget action thriller.
Prithviraj released in theatres last weekend and it went on to gross just Rs 23 crores in two days. The film will cross the Rs 30 crores mark with the Sunday collections tally. But this simply isn’t good enough, given the kin of money that is at stake for the big budget film. It is sure to emerge as one of the biggest disasters of all time in Bollywood.
Prithviraj is a mega budget actioner featuring Akshay Kumar, Manushi Chillar, Sonu Sood, and others in the lead roles.
Going by the investment-recovery ratio, Prithviraj is sure to emerge as a mega disaster in every true sense. Akshay Kumar, who was once a bankable star in Hindi appears to have lost his mojo now.
