Samrat Prithviraj Box Office Debacle Blamed On Akshay Kumar? Director Chandraprakash Dwivedi Finally Breaks Silence & Says “If Anybody Is Responsible For The Failure, It’s…”

Since yesterday reports of Samrat Prithviraj makers blaming the lead actor Akshay Kumar for the film’s failure have been doing the rounds of social media and how. It all started after director Chandraprakash Dwivedi, in his latest interview, pointed out superstar’s controversies – including Pan Masala Endorsement – and said that these factors could be the reason for the film’s failure. Later, a source quote surfaced on the web that stated that the makers of the film are blaming Akshay Kumar as he didn’t grow a real moustache.

Now dismissing all the claims, director Chandraprakash Dwivedi said that all these reports are not true. He even revealed who should be blamed for it and why.

Speaking to ETimes, filmmaker Chandraprakash Dwivedi denied the rumours of makers blaming Akshay Kumar for the film’s failure. He said, “In the last four years we have come closer to each other. He is not only an actor for me. He is more than an actor – a friend, a well wisher, a guardian. He is younger to me but behaves like a guardian. I never blamed him for the failure of the film. Why should I? If he wouldn’t have been there, the film would never have been made. If anybody is responsible for the failure of ‘Samrat Prithviraj’, it is me. I don’t understand my audience.”
