Wednesday, 21st May 2014, 06:10 PM IST Akshay Kumar has around six movie releases this year and mentions that we would most certainly prefer at least a few months’ gap between movie releases. With'Holiday', 'It's Entertainment', 'Gabbar', 'Baby', 'Shaukeen' and 'Singh Is Bling', lined up to release in the next 12 months, Akshay says that it would be ideal to have a 5-month gap between releases. His last film ‘Boss’ was released in October last year and this schedule, he feels, is a bit hectic, but it all depends on the producers. "Every producer comes up with a date and has a mindset.I would prefer a gap of at least five months between my films. But, ultimately it is the producer's decision when to release the film. I can surely manipulate them (producers). Lot of actors do it by saying 'I will not dub for the film'.An actor can control it but I have never ever manipulated in my career. I have always allowed my producers to take the call," Akshay said. Although Akshay admits that he tried to convince the producers to make changes in the release date, but the ultimate decision was up to them. "I told Reliance Entertainment and producer Vipul Shah to release 'Holiday' in January or March but they decided to release it in June. After three months, 'It's Entertainment' will release, produced by Tips Industries Ltd. I had asked producers to change the release date but they think releasing the film in August is apt," he said. "I cannot argue or dictate terms with them.I try and keep myself aside from having a conflict with producers as they know their job well. Also, they put in crores in a film. They must be doing some study on when to release the film," he added. Akshay’s next film ‘Holiday’ is set to release on June 6. |
