Actor Akshay Kumar tells that he realized the relevance of reinventing himself when he got stuck with the image of super hero in early stages of his career.

“I realised it (the need to reinvent) long back, because in the initial days I used to do only action films. I was known as an action hero. In fact, when I used to get up every morning, I would know I had to go on the set and do action. I used to get bored and used to think ‘what am I doing by just doing action’,” Akshay said.

In order to take a break from his cliche roles, Akshay tried comedy roles and explored rom-com space.

“I tried doing different things. At that time, people used to say ‘tu comedy nahi kar payega (you won’t be able to do comedy)’. But Priyadarshanji and Rajkumar Santoshiji gave me my break in comedy, and they got me into it,” he said.

Asked what genre he wants to try, Akshay said: “I don’t go on the lines, he is a villain, he is a hero. I have done everything. If I like a film, I do it.”

Akshay’s upcoming movie is “Sooryavanshi” in that he plays the role of Veer Sooryavanshi.

He plays a RAW agent in “Bell Bottom”, and brings alive the heroism of Prithviraj Chauhan in “Prithviraj”. He also has “Bachchan Pandey”, “Atrangi Re”, “Raksha Bandhan” and “Ram Setu” lined up.

The actor is committed to continuing on the same path — something that is reflected in his upcoming work slate. It is said that over Rs 530 core is riding on him, with the films that are slated to release this year.
