I have seen continuous 16 flops in my career: Akshay Kumar on recent box office bombs

The Bade Miyan Chote Miyan trailer was launched today, March 26, in Mumbai. The cast and crew of the film came together for the event. Speaking at the trailer launch, Akshay Kumar addressed a series of flop movies he has been going through. For the uninitiated, the actor’s last movies Mission Raniganj, OMG 2, and Selfiee underperformed at the box office. 

Addressing the string of flops, the actor said, “I don't stick to one kind of genre. I keep on jumping from one genre to another, whether it's success or not success.” He further revealed that he himself gets bored of starring in movies from one genre. He added, “So sometimes success is there, sometimes it's not there. It's not that I haven't seen, I've seen continuous 16 flops in one go in my career and I still stood there and I kept on working hard and I'll still keep on doing that.” He concluded by saying that he has poured a lot of hard work into Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and he believes that the film brings “good luck” to everyone.

In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Vashu Bhagnani, producer of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan also opened up on casting Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff in the lead roles despite their recent flops.

Koi fark hi nahin padta.”

Then, even the actors are big and the same applies to the director.” Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is a remake of the 1998 comedy caper movie of the same name.
