Akshay Kumar has been one of the most consistent actors in Bollywood since his acting debut. He has been delivering back to back films throughout his career, most of which have turned out to be good hits at the box office, and he is also known as one of the most consistent actors.
However, Akshay has been faltering of late, with all of his latest releases turning out to be box office duds, with the exception of Sooryavanshi, which was released last year, and turned out to be a decent success. The actor is now gearing up for the release of his third film for the year, Cuttputlli, a remake of the Tamil film Ratsasan, which was remade in Telugu as Rakshasudu, which featured Bellamkonda Srinivas and Anupama Parameswaran in the lead roles.
Cuttputlli features Rakul Preet Singh as the leading lady, and is set to be released on OTT directly, skipping a theatrical release. In the wake of all of his recent films turning out to be disasters, it wouldn’t be too much to assume that Akshay doesn’t seem to want to brave yet another theatrical release. Cuttputlli will begin streaming on Disney Hotstar from September 2nd.
