The new King of Bollywood Akshay Kumar has further proven that he is now the undisputed Box Office champion as new release Singh Is Kinng breaks more records.
We can reveal that after only 13 days of release, the comic caper has passed the 1 million pound mark in the UK. Showing on 50 screens the film’s collections stand at a staggering £1.01m. This means that Akshay Kumar has joined the UK’s millionaire club for the first time, and top that with another 4 massive box office hits within 18 months (Namaste London, Heyy Baby, Bhool Bhullaiya, Welcome), this means he is truly the new King.
Singh Is Kinng kept it’s place in the elusive UK Box Office Top 10, at number 10, dropping only 4 places from last week.
This week’s big release the Ranbir Kapoor starrer Bachna Ae Haseeno, failed to make any news at it opened up at a lowly number 13. It’s takings for the weekend were well down compared to Singh Is Kinng, collection £100,693, compared to Singh Is Kinng’s 178,035.

Akshay the true king rocks all the way.
To be truly a real King, you don’t deliver Megaflops like Tashan.
And you have to deliver hits for years, not only the last one and a half year.
Further you have to deliver serious actingwork as the Big Guys in Black, Lagaan, Fanaah, Veer Zaara, Swades, CDI, RDB.
Not only stupid comic roles.
Akshay is true king.He greatestest action hero,dancer,comedian,
romantic or tragic actor.He is great editer and host(KKK).I have
seen once in Canada i think he is most good looking person on earth.
He is true king.No one even close to him.
Sunny Bhai,
So you are a gay my boy.
“The most good looking person on earth.”
I guess your wife or girlfriend would be named that.
Off course Akki is a great editer, he cutss off his costars roles.
its trully funny how media rated him in King place. i agreed with Happy. It takes years of HIT to take the king status. Akshey after strugling years n yearsssssssssss n come with one stupid sardar box office collection n he became the KING ? u ppl r either trully morons or don’t have any idea about industry at all.
the true KING of bollywood is BIG B & SRK.
then Aamir and Hrithik.
Akshay will remain Akshay after years of service. Just like what happen to Rajesh Kanna. And i still personally think Rajesh kanna is way better star then Akshey.
Akshay you are a talented actor you deserve credit and well earned! IIFA 2007 what a performance i was there! you look good act good and certainly are a pleasure. good luck just don’t get too greedy and be thankful. the khan saga is out of date don’t fall in the same trap!! U ROCK SEXY !!!
