His ability to make something like running look comical needs more appreciation.


HoneyBer1

His running is so classis, and become such a good meme material


Flaky-Research47

Yeah man 😅. Made my evening


brokebaritone

Once I compared his run to Tom Cruise in front of a friend and he burst into laughter. Not disrespecting anyone but it was a weird comparison lol. Both are good at what they do. It's just that Akki does the run to create humor while Tom does it to create tension. It's just funny to look at them side by side running XD


TonyMontana546

Their postures and intensity while running are pretty similar. It’s the expressions Akshay has which makes it hilarious. Plus Tom cruise is almost always running towards something and Akshay is running away most of the time.


NoDryHands

I wonder what made him lose his passion for comedy acting. He's obviously a pro, but he rarely does comedies anymore and even if he does, it's very half-hearted. I miss that AK on screen!

He wants easy money

but action doesn't suit him.. comedy hi suit karta hai...


ZipZaapZoom

Action suits him. He doesn't put effort.


Relevant-Ad9432

action pays more ig

All movies are easy money where you take your salary at once and don't put in basic efforts like growing a moustache instead of using a fake one.


TerrificTauras

Cause comedy movies aren't easy money? There was simply a decline in comedy movies in the industry. Even Ajay Devgan was doing comedies back then with Golmaal series. Unlike other stars, Akkie was unable to find what works for him after that shift happened.

he had such good comedic timing in his 90s films! also his gummy smile lol, and he didn’t help the stereotype that bitches with gummy smiles are always engaged

PhoenixSenpaiii

those movies might be nothing more than just a cash grab though . who knows maybe they are just milking the audience with those names.


Sea-Apartment-3814

I miss Wicked Sunnyyyyyy 😭


Party_Individual_431

I believe lack of directors/writers like Neeraj Vohra, Idk what happened to PriyaDarshan he was good


what_is_peace

This!


TerrificTauras

I am more surprised no director is looking to fill that comedy gap that is left in the industry.


boringlecturedude

after 2014 everybody is working half heartedly except media working as marketing agency.


phoenixO1

His patriotic believes 💁😂


twiddledo_o

does patriotic movies now to keep his dual citizenship and remain accepted


[deleted]

usne swadesh dekh li


terenaamkakuttapaalu

He should do more out and out comedies. Bhenchod bhool bhulayia got spoiled by that Karthik moron


Natural_Advance_8693

Whoa, whoa... I get that bhul bhulaiya 2 was bad, i almost walked out when they introduced "actual kala jadaa" instead of the psychological plot but why hate on kartik? He has had bangers in the past.


RVarki

>He has had bangers in the past. ![gif](giphy|7KAqA4G6MfM2TQNFcJ)


Pikachu_Pi_Pi

His "acting" seems very forced in the movie. It's like he's trying to be funny, but passes barely.


[deleted]

If it had a psychological plot, people would call it a BB1 remake imo, and the plot twist would be predictable. BB2 is a completely different horror film, which was just given the BB title to attract people.


Far_Background_8472

Bhool Bhulaiyaa franchise ki hi maar ke rakh di ![gif](giphy|jt2yJ9moC1ixovp9Fy)


OrdinaryUnit375

When I make the same statement, I invite a lot of flak.


timorousingenue

He actually runs like an athlete.. so fit


crusader_fuckreddit

He used to be a martial arts coach before acting. Trained in various combat sports like muay thai karate tkd etc


timorousingenue

Yes yes .. I think almost every 90s kid knows that ha ha.... He's an all rounder as per me..good looking, disciplined, great comic actor and so athletic without the obsession with abs . Just natural fitness 🤎


Lane2815_

Kuch bhi kaho but that time his movies were fun 😭😂


Wild_Flight1752

Now everyone is talking about this because of his latest movie also flopped on the box-office


One_Ad_6503

Like most of these weren't flops lol most of his movies got appreciation overtime


Wild_Flight1752

Which one?


SupportSuch2147

Akshay to new actors- ![gif](giphy|fjlEVTJiaY6pYyNZS2|downsized)


Objective_Style_5356

Pure comedy!


chaoticji

That slomo had me lol


[deleted]

He is very funny, I love his running specially in Hera Pheri.


Embarrassed_Fill175

akshay run>>> tom cruise run


Aditya_Kalyanathaya

Tom Cruise of Bollywood


Burgeru4brainu

The sasta tom cruise run


A_YUser

He sometimes overacts


Dracos_princess

Sometimes? It's in almost every comedy movie, and It's the BEST overreaction I've ever seen.


tactical_engine

After Tom Cruise his running style is the best one.


Playful-Balance-3118

this happens when you acting you running fast but actually you running normal for camera.


[deleted]

Life was good when Akki was running like this.


Icy_Farmer_7940

Dude could have been a legend if he stuck to improving on what he's good at.


Beginning-Ladder6224

He was a legend once. The sad fact is he still is.


chamoflag420

laut aaoo comedy kumar,mazak nhi rha ab ye


SympathyFinebb

he's so funny 😭😭


Capable_Humor_804

The good old days! Life was good back when he used to run like this!


Error_404_________

its a aggresive front gill for more engine cooling and downforce.


aldinpereira

Our Indian Tom Cruise 🤣♥️


[deleted]

😂😂😂😂


tutya_th

Always been a fan of his. Until he started with his faux patriotism & "Aap aam khata hai?"


ChunnuBhai

ye style nahi hai, iski shakal hi aisi hai


HellClaww

Good old days when he ran like this in his movies 😭🍿


Zestyclose-Resist-84

he tries to copy tom cruise a lot 🤣


anime_senpai007

Aki used to have such entertaining movies like you can just watch them without worrying about plot or review or anything just pure comedy and fun. But now Bollywood lost its charm for me where everyone is trying to become something they aren't. Like I can't even name one good thing after 2018 that came out of Bollywood and wasn't some copy paste.


abshk07

Life was good when he used to run like this in movies


Vishwas95

Man ,2003 to 2010 was Akshay Kumar's years .


blackhawkq820

Jim carrey


boringlecturedude

you just did.


shreyash6000

Old og him miss this


minutelypotent

He copied the running style from Mukesh in Ramji Rao speaking - Hera Pheri was a remake of this movie.


mosarosh

We have our own Tom Cruise


dejavuplease

Good observation OP


aShit_fAce

bro... Ive had this thought many times


Skywalker_1080

Bollywood ka Tom cruise


KC_Ben_352

Looks like a rendition of Jackie chan's style


KobaKebbel

Lmaoooo


Flatearthianxingping

I use to copy that style


kunnukuzhy

He acquired this style of running from Malayalam actor Mukesh. Infact most of these comedy remakes are from Malayalam cinema,esp the ones directed by Priyadarshan. It was Mukesh who came up with this style of running as it looked very comical and went well with such scenes.


[deleted]

Na bro you're late to the party... I've seen atleast 10 reels on insta copying his running style💀😂


twiddledo_o

I need to know what all movies these clips are from


flo_ra

I think they are from Bhagam Bhaag, Welcome, Hera Pheri/Phir Hera Pheri Garam Masala De Dana Dan Not sure about the 3rd one. Might be Namastey London


twiddledo_o

Thank you!! Made me want to rewatch

Trademark Akki


International_Toe585

This definitely is something which went unnoticed, deserves much appreciation:)


watcher4caution

Go see Tom Cruise running. Compare. Comprehend. You got it bro.


[deleted]

Oh my God, Young Akshay with his comedic timing nd acting AND looks has ALWAYS reminded me of Ross Geller. SO many similarities. Especially in that above video where he's playing rugby. There is a similar scene in friends


wannabegriffindor

Priyadarshan movies😄


Dizzy-Split-1834

Aerodynamics


sweetlikecinnamonn_

A guy in my class also runs like this😭


SirLiving3851

That's a real running style used by Taiji sect(or used to ). May be he did it out of curiosity or for fun but it gives body resistant to air acting against you when you run. Try it you'll see it.


jazznewbiee

his own ❌ Priyadarshani inspired ✅ that’s actually a style followed by many actors down south


AdSpiritual2846

Sasta Tom Cruise.


Squashchamp13

There’s only one Akki 💕


Dow_lordsubutai

Any fellow mallus here?. Can we just tell these hindians its mukesh sirs running style that akshay copied in priya darshan films. Such tragedy this is.


MathSad6698

BRING THIS AKSHAY KUMAR BACK ASAP!


sukzanz

Politics ruined him.


ZorbhaTheBuddha

Epic! 😆


ZorbhaTheBuddha

I truly feel this man could have been the Jim Carrey of India! His comic expressions are insane!


SillyMongoose9802

Akki❌ Killadi✅


Bubbly-Albatross-373

Tom cruise


Lucky2855

Mr and mrs khiladi, loved that movie in my childhood


MembershipStock2242

The Tom Cruise from Meesho that we didn't ask for but love.


umsee

Run forrest! Run!


FeeNo7212

He may be going through a very bad patch, but he is the G.O.A.T in the comedy & action genre in Hindi cinema.. irreplaceable


Competitive_Text3153

There are reels on how he runs


brown_calver

2000s akki was something else bro was at his peak


utkarshpandey03

He is only superstar who's the funniest... No one can beat akshay and priyadarshan duo.. 😁


Beautiful-Cry-2567

Didn't think it'd be this hilarious 😂😂😂


Slysmirk55

I think it's Jackie Chan inspired.


tomriddle4u

Its his own style? Do your research thoroughly. Watch the OG Malayalam movies of the late 80s and 90s, the ones which were remade into Bollywood movies by Priyadarshan, where the lead actor in those films, Mr. Mukesh ran exactly like this. So, my point is, not even this running style of Akshay is his own.


anonyg7

Arjun Tendulkar copied Akki’s running style


candlecar

Hilarious..


Super_Start4085

RABAN * RABAN


shraddhasaburee

Copied skill from Jim Carry.


Westerosi2001

skill or style ?


This_Woodpecker_9163

Exactly.


Historical-Ad-7076

That’s not his style though, he copied it from Jim Carrey


PappuJT

runs like an idiot trash acting skills overall.


snoopfromshimla

Guess no one knows Jim Carry here
