Suniel Shetty is sixty-three today. One of the biggest superstars at the time, Akshay Kumar, was seen as a danger by many when he made his debut in 1992.
Suniel Shetty is sixty-three today. The actor, who made his feature debut in 1992’s Balwaan, was once thought to pose a danger to Akshay Kumar, who was already well-established. There were also a lot of rumors regarding their “rivalry,” with Rediff even claiming in 1997 that Suniel was making Akshay “tremors.” These are the things Suniel said to the website back then regarding their alleged feud.
‘I don’t decide who I want to pose with’
Aishwarya Rai and Sushmita Sen were the models for Suniel and Akshay’s magazine covers in the past. In response to criticism of “oneupmanship,” Suniel asserted that there was “no problem” between the performers.
“Let me tell you, the rivalry between us is made up by the media,” he stated. The publications choose who I want to take pictures with, not me. I don’t have any issues with Akki; it appears like the periodicals are engaged in some sort of internal competition. Thus, while one magazine features Akki and Sushmita, another seeks to feature Aishwarya and me. For us, nothing more than posing for pictures is part of our job; we carry it out with that attitude.
Since that was the story being promoted at the time, Suniel was also questioned if people thought they were rivals. “Of course they don’t—fans are not that dumb,” he said. They put all kinds of spectacular items on the front of their publications because they know that they are in competition with one another and want to sell more copies. However, that does not imply that the man reading the account of who is sleeping with whom finds it credible.
Suniel Shetty’s long association with Akshay Kumar
The actors have frequently collaborated since their roles in the 1993 films Waqt Hamara Hai and Pehchaan, despite rumors to the contrary. They even collaborated on the popular 1994 movie Mohra. With Paresh Rawal, Akshay and Suniel made the same move from action to humor in the 2000 movie Hera Pheri. They have since acted in movies such as Deewane Huye Paagal, Awara Paagal Deewana, and Dhadkan. Hera Pheri 3 and Welcome to the Jungle will shortly include Akshay and Suniel.
