We know that the three Khans - Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir have created history in Bollywood for being at the top for a very very long period. However, there are also some others who have also striven to sustain in Bollywood for too long. One of them is Akshay Kumar, who has worked on a lot of quality cinema and has worked to give his audience something new and exciting.
In an interview with DNA, Akshay spoke of the suppposed 'rivalry' with the Khans. He said that it was non-existant and they were all buddies.
"I don’t take such stories seriously. And I do not approve of it at all. Others also take everything with a pinch of salt. Whether it’s Aamir, Salman or Shah Rukh, we all maintain cordial relations and there’s no bad blood between us. It’s never been about who’s-better-than-whom in the industry. I don’t like comparing anyone to myself and vice versa. I believe we are all together and that this is one industry. We work together and I would love everybody’s films to also work exceptionally well. The industry needs more and more revenue to make bigger films and satisfy the needs of those Indians who keep comparing us to Hollywood.”
He added, "I don’t believe in competition. We are not some Mahalaxmi ka ghoda that we need to constantly race against each other. I feel all such loose talk is a thing of the past."
When asked if he would star in a two hero film with one of the Khans, he said, “Like I said, there is no competition or bad blood between anyone. I am sure, like me, others also wish me well. But the only problem today is, there is a lack of unity among all of us. Maybe, that’s why there are not many multi-starrers and two-hero projects coming up now."
