With As Many As 8 Upcoming Films On The Pipeline, Akshay Kumar Will Take Over Bollywood Once Again!

Akshay Kumar is the only Kumar and non-Khan who has made his way to the top. While we call the Khans the sure shot hit machine, Akshay Kumar's films have also been doing absolutely brilliantly. While 2016 and 2017 turned to be the most successful years for Akki, 2018 also opened to good numbers with Padman, 2.0, and things are just looking brighter.

And it's not for the first time that Akshay has found a way to beat the 3 major Khans. He has developed a method wherein just by working harder and doing more films, he defeats the mightiest of BO players.
