First week collection for Akshay starer Singh is Kinng (Review) has come to 28 crore  which is more than Shahrukh’s Om Shanti Om and is a opening record . It might end up as bigger grosser then OSO .Considering it is not a Diwali release this is great achievement from Akshay and his team.

Question is who is bigger star of bollywood is it Don SRK or  Kinng Akshay ? I am not asking for number one because as long as Amitabh is present there can be no dispute. So let’s compare Akshay and SRK and  in terms of hits Akshay has given more hits then Shahrukh in last few years with Phir Hera Pheri  and  Bhagam Bhag in 2006 , Namastey London , Heyy Baby , Bhool Bhulaiyya and Welcome in 2007 compared to SRK’s 2 Don in 2006 and OSO and Chak De in 2007.

My personal choice is Akshay as he can carry comedy and action better then SRK and his comedy doesn’t ridicule anyone (remember Manoj Kumar in OSO ) . Akshay has worked with lesser known directors barring Tashan (which anyway was  flop of the year) and unknown actresses . On the contrary SRK works with bigger directors,bigger banners , proven actresses with overly friendly media .It is hard to differentiate is SRK a marketing manager or actor or a big manipulator as it is hard to digest how media can  laud OSO and demean Singh is Kinng as both movies were masala movies so one critic should either laud both or demean both unless they are being paid by SRK.

Let me know what do you think ?
