Akshay's 'Khel Khel Mein' underperforms, yet to touch ₹30cr
Akshay Kumar's latest film, Khel Khel Mein, has had a consistently lukewarm response at the box office. The movie, directed by Mudassar Aziz and co-starring Fardeen Khan, Taapsee Pannu, Ammy Virk, Vaani Kapoor, Pragya Jaiswal, and Aditya Seal, was released on August 15. Khel Khel Mein received mostly positive reviews, but its clash with Stree 2 and Vedaa has punctured its performance.
