Recently actor Salman Khan had said that ₹1000 crore is the new benchmark for films.
Now, actor Akshay Kumar has spoken about the box office trend and praised Shah
Rukh Khan’s blockbuster film Jawan, which is the highest grosser in Hindi cinema and
has minted more than ₹1000 crore worldwide. During an interaction with India Today,
Akshay said films such as Jawan, Gadar 2 and even his own movie OMG 2, have all
done very well this year
Akshay, whose latest film Mission Raniganj released in theatres on Friday, said, “I hope the industry gives more and more hits. I was very happy when Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan did such a good business. There are many other films, like Gadar 2, OMG 2, which also did well. So it’s very good for the industry. Our industry went through a very bad patch because of Covid-19 times. Now things are moving and it’s a great thing that ₹1000 crore is a benchmark. Also, I hope that we make ₹2000-3000 crore films like Hollywood, because the kind of cinema, the screenplay, the script that we have they don’t have.”
