Spotlight on Bollywood Superstar: Akshay Kumar

Rajiv Hari Om Bhatia (Sep 9, 1967), known by his fans as Akshay Kumar, is “an Indian-born Canadian actor” (per Wikipedia) and a Bollywood superstar. He makes great movies, and I always love him when he is cast as the good guy.



According to the Times of India, “Akshay Kumar entered the film industry as an action hero, but proved his mettle in comic as well as romantic roles.”

I agree 100%. I have watched several of his films, and Akshay Kumar can do action hero, comic, and romantic roles, all-around good guy. But I refuse to accept him in a bad guy role. No. No! NO!! Absolutely not!




He played a gangster in the gangster film “Once Upon a Time in Mumbai Dobaara!”. He wasn’t one of the bad guys. He was the Big Bad Guy, in charge of all of the other bad guys. Sorry, but in my humble opinion, he was not suited for this role. He should have been cast as one of the law enforcement people trying to catch the bad guys. It was a good movie, but … Mr. Kumar as a bad guy? No way!

By contrast, I watched another one of his films, “Rustom”, because it was on a list of the best 2016 Hindi films, and he was fantastic! Not only was he the good guy, but you’ll appreciate the fact that the movie was based on a true story.

If you are not familiar with this actor, start by watching the two films mentioned, and then you can decide. Good Guy or Bad Guy? I am confident you will agree with me.
