Akshay Kumar’s box office
Akshay Kumar’s last release, Singham Again, collected ₹372.4 crore worldwide. However, the movie had an ensemble cast, with the lead being Ajay Devgn. Akshay Kumar also did a cameo for Stree 2, which earned ₹857.15 crore worldwide.
However, regarding his own movies, Akshay Kumar has not seen box office success for a long time. His last releases, Khel Khel Mein, Sarfira, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Mission Raniganj, Selfiee, Ram Setu, Raksha Bandhan, Samrat Prithviraj and Bachchhan Paandey, failed miserably at the box office.
Akshay Kumar’s last hit movie was Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi, released in 2021. Made with ₹160 crore, the action movie minted ₹293 crore worldwide.
Sky Force’s success is a much-awaited one for Akshay Kumar. He already has a number of movies lined up for 2025. His upcoming movies are Jolly LLB 3, Housefull 5 and Shankara. He will also do a cameo in Kannappa, a Telugu mythological movie where Akshay will play Lord Shiva.
