But more telling is the mixed response from audience and critics, many of whom have panned the film for lack of content and repetitive double meaning humor.
The franchise fatigue is visible and even Akshay’s presence couldn’t save Housefull 5 from being called a disappointment by many.
Given this situation, it’s time for Akshay Kumar to introspect and recalibrate his choices.
Instead of moving ahead with another formulaic comedy like Welcome To The Jungle, focusing on content driven cinema can help him get back in the game and connect with an audience that now demands more than just star power and slapstick.
The industry and his fans are ready for a new chapter—one where content leads the way.
