Singh is kingg?? not really!
Our new bollywood king but not Khan or say to say Singh Khan aka Akshay kumar believes that real king of bollywood is Amitabh Bachhan.He was found quoted by news reporters, “There is only one king and he is Amitabh Bachchan. I am merely acting in a film called ‘Singh Is Kinng’.” Even though it appears crystal clear refference to King Khan SRK but Akshay avoided direct naming.Akshay adds that he doesn’t care for any controversy on this issue. He further adds, “Bachchan has been in the film industry over 35 / 40 years and he is the real king. There are many who are around for 15-20 years and like to call themselves king.”
The new hit machine of bollywood as the street smart shef of Bangkok has piled up hit after hits on box office. New millennium seems to have hit purple patch for Akki who gave flops after flops initially in his career suddenly embarked on a bull run with films that mostly tickled the funny bone: Hera Pheri (2000), Mujhse Shaadi Karoge (2004), Garam Masala (2005), Phir Hera Pheri (2006), Bhagam Bhag (2006), Namastey London (2007), Heyy Baby (2007), Bhool Bhulaiyya (2007) and Welcome (2007). Other than Hera Pheri , most of the other comedies have been slapstick rather than smart and witty.
Impressed by Amitabh Bachhan’s humble attitude Akshay is all praise for the Big B as he flew down to India from Los Angels to promote Big B’s ambitious world tour ‘unforgettable’. He was speaking at the promotional party of latest release ‘ Singh is Kingg’.
