We are not taking responsibilities. Yeah, a man would think that his film works so that he has the strength to go forward to make films as there are so many other issues.

People came up to me and said that you have to do something now, I made films and did not work."Akshay then spoke about how he had seen failure in his career earlier too."This has happened several times in my career.. Ups and downs happen in everybody's life. Already, a man puts in everything in making a film and after that doing the publicity of that film that too takes a toll."What about mixed responses, does that take a toll too?"Only till Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The three days of release that affect and from Monday different work starts," said the actor, who was named in the 2019 Forbes list of highest paid entertainers in the world, ranking 52nd.The 54-year-old actor has been in the industry for over three decades and has worked in over 100 films.
