Akshay Kumar is currently garnering accolades for his performance in Mission Raniganj. Helmed by Tinu Suresh Desai, the film is based on the life of a real-life hero, Jaswant Gill, who saved the lives of coal mines trapped in a flooded mine. After garnering all the praise for choosing such a topic, the film seems to be struggling at the ticket windows. Amid the positive reviews, Akshay has recently opened up about the poor performance of the film.

After facing a tough time with films like Raksha Bandhan, Bachchhan Paandey, Samrat Prithviraj, and Ram Setu, among others, the actor enjoyed success with his last film, OMG 2. Akki was seen opposite Pankaj Tripathi in the Amit Rai directorial.

In a recent conversation with Times Now Navbharat, Akshay Kumar finally broke his silence on Mission Raniganj’s poor box office performance and called it one of the best films of his career, adding that he owns it up. Speaking about the same, Akshay said, “It is not a commercial film. It has not earned as much as it should have earned. But, I have come here knowing that the film has not done well, to own the film–and I have done some 150 films by now–and say that this is one of my best films.”
