Akshay Kumar talks about starring in comedy roles

Akshay Kumar is one actor who has pretty much tried his hand at every kind role there is to play. While the actor is famous for being an action star, his movies prove that he can adapt to any genre. Be it romance, drama or even comedy, the actor has successfully nailed all roles.

Akshay recently spoke to a leading daily about choosing comedy roles, "You can make someone cry by crying on screen but to make someone laugh out loud in a theatre full of strangers till their bellies ache with your comic timing is not only extremely difficult, but also painfully embarrassing if you fail at it," he stated. "It has the biggest effect if you succeed, but it has the most tragic career changing consequences if you don’t," the actor continued.

He further stated, "So, one always knows when making an action movie that it’s not always going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but if you can’t make everyone laugh, that’s it, you’re doomed, banished to the serious couch never to be invited to the party again."

When asked if he was going to do a comic role soon, he said, "My audience will never have to fear about me not doing an out and out comedy, it’s in my blood. I’ll never be able to stay away from my comfort zone or my buddies for too long. Entertainment is my calling." Akshay will next be seen in '2.0' in which he stars as the antagonist.
