The Good Newwz actor in the interview talked about how he does not have a success mantra. He only does hard work and plans to be in Bollywood for long.

The interviewer asked him about the clash that might take place of Eid between Salman Khan's Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai and Laxmmi Bomb. He replied that there are a limited number of Fridays and a large number of movies so clashes are natural. Akshay was also asked about his expectations with himself.
