Akshay Kumar Says Bollywood Lacks Unity Like South Film Industries

Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar has been in the film industry for over three decades and has witnessed several changing trends. In a recent interview with IMDb, while promoting his recent release, Sky Force, Akshay Kumar shared the change he would like to bring to Bollywood, given the opportunity.

During the conversation, Kumar’s Sky Force co-star Veer Pahariya asked him, “Is there anything about movies or Bollywood that you would like to change?” Replying promptly, Akshay said, “If I get a chance to change anything about our industry, then I would like to bring more unity to our industry.”

He continued, “We are like a family but, sometimes I feel that we work in isolation. We just become separate. If we come together, support each other, celebrate each other’s successes, and tackle challenges together to find solutions… If we come together as a collective force that will create a lot of good impact on others also and the industry.”

Akshay Kumar’s latest film, Sky Force, is performing well in cinemas. Released on January 24, 2025, the film also stars newcomer Veer Pahariya, Sara Ali Khan, Nimrat Kaur, and Sharad Kelkar in key roles. Based on the lives of Air Force officers, the film is directed by Abhishek Anil Kapur and Sandeep Kewlani.
