The once comedy king Akshay Kumar is going through one of the worst phases in his career.

After the pandemic, his career took a big hit.

His last few films tanked miserably. This year, he gave us Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, which caused the producers a loss of about 250 crores. It was followed by Sarfira and Khel Khel Mein, both of which were decent.

This downward graph is probably because the audience doesn't want to see more of him back-to-back. The actor was once known for his comedic roles in films like Welcome and Hera Pheri. But now, his acting skills and project choices haven't been sitting right with the audience.

Akshay Kumar took a break from acting back in August, after the release of Khel Khel Mein. In the following four months, there was no film released by the actor.
