3.       Tees Maar Khan (2010)

Akshay Kumar starred in this Farah Khan-directed flick along with Katrina Kaif. Tees Maar Khan also gave fans the hit item number, Sheila Ki Jawaani. The film was released alongside another Akshay Kumar starrer, Action Replayy. Even though Tees Maar Khan covered up its costs, it was a disappointment in terms of storyline and plot, in the opinions of critics and audiences.

Despite a high number of flop movies, Akshay Kumar is still one of the biggest stars in Bollywood. He is known for all taking up movies that have a patriotic or social message. He makes up for the badly performing experiments with those roles that work out for him. Currently, he is shooting for Laxmmi Bomb where he will be playing a transgender for the first time. Akshay Kumar is also gearing up for the release of Housefull 4.
