The original king of action, Akshay Kumar is returning to his forte with a hattrick of projects, all releasing later this year. The list goes something like this- TASHAN (April 25th), SINGH IS KINNG (August 8th) and CHANDNI CHOWK TO CHINA (October 2nd).
What may surprise many is that the current comedy king finds action easier than comedy! And he does have a logical reason for saying so. As per the 'Khiladi', a comic sequence depends a lot on the stars sharing the same frame. If they lack in comic timing, then the comedy scene turns in to a tragic one! In case of an action sequence, the work and the talent of the actor speaks for itself. There is no dependency on other stars. He goes on to say that today's audience sees a lot of Hollywood action flicks and are smart enough to distinguish between a computerized action sequence and an authentic one.
We must say that Akki has a point, in fact, a couple of them, and we are positive that the 'Khiladi' will reclaim his action king title (which has been lying vacant ever since he relinquished it), in the first round itself, that is with TASHAN!
