Success gives me a boost to work on different kind of stories: Akshay Kumar,


Akshay Kumar is undoubtedly one of the most bankable stars of Bollywood, but the actor says surviving in the industry has been task.
The actor, who has been having a golden run at the box office since past one decade, says success has made him more comfortable in taking risks and being versatile.
“It feels good that all my films have been loved. I can’t believe my films have done so much business. The money is coming in the film industry and it gives the producers the money to make all kinds of films, big or small,” Akshay said in a group interview here.
“This year was similar to 2018 and 2017. It has been a good year and I think I have been lucky. It just gives me a boost to work on other things, other kinds of films, different cinemas, different kinds of topics to pick on, what things I can show, what culture I can show to the world,” he added.
Akshay, whose last few films have focused on social issues and Indian history, said for any actor, while signing the project it is impossible to predict the future of a movie.

I’m fascinated with slightly tragic characters: Janhvi Kapoor,

Actor Janhvi Kapoor instantly agreed to feature in Zoya Akhtar’s short in the horror anthology Ghost Stories for two reasons: to understand how the filmmaker creates her characters and because she finds herself drawn to “slightly tragic characters”. Zoya’s short features the Dhadak star as a home nurse tasked with taking care of an elderly woman, played by veteran actor Surekha Sikri. Janhvi says the project gave her the opportunity to understand the world Zoya creates, which is quite unlike others. “The way Zoya sees her characters and writes them, they are grounded in reality. They are detailed and never one dimensional, she layers them in a way I don’t think many filmmakers have cracked. “I wanted to be a part of this world and get to know how these characters are made.
