Actor Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan go back a long way. They both began their acting careers around the same time, and developed such a good camaraderie that they went on to star together in hits such as Mujhse Shaadi Karogi and Jaan E Mann.

Of late, Salman has been facing a lot of criticism around his last few films being criticised for both their content and low box office collections. His latest release, Sikandar faced the same fate. HT City managed to catch up with Akshay at a special screening of his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 in Delhi today- the chatter is such that films starring big stars aren’t working today, after Salman’s Sikandar, we asked.

“Dekhiye yeh galat baat hai. Aisa hai, aisa ho nahi sakta hai. Tiger Zinda hai aur hamesha rahega. Salman aisi nasal ka tiger jo zindagi mein kabhi marr nahi sakta,” he told HT City exclusively.

Rishabh Suri is an Assistant Editor, film critic, and professional overthinker of plot points. He writes for HT City, keeping pace with an industry where news cycles expire long before the popcorn gets cold. He completed his graduation in English Honours from Kirori Mal College, followed by a Master’s degree in English Literature-effectively training his brain to over-analyse classic texts before applying those exact same skills to 3-hour Bollywood blockbusters. He got into the profession when he had barely graduated from college and has been at HT ever since. At HT, Rishabh reviews films with a simple rule: skip the dense academic jargon and get straight to the point. Beyond reviews, as Assistant Editor, he helps navigate the broader circus of showbiz, tracking everything from OTT shifts to sudden box office panics. In a beat driven by loud PR machinery and carefully scripted answers, Rishabh prefers cutting through the noise to focus on how stories get made and why trends shift. When he isn’t writing against a deadline, he is usually sitting in a dark theater, compulsively memorising dialogues. For Rishabh, analysing movies isn't just a day job- it’s a habit he couldn't turn off even if he tried.
