Q. What have been Akshay's fees in recent movies and which is his biggest fee?
A. For Singh Is Kinng he pocketed around 21 crore, Jumbo was 9 crore for voiceover and promo song, Chandni Chowk To China was 17 crore and 8 x 10 Tasveer was 20 crore. His biggest fee is set to be De Dhana Dhan where he would have picked up 29 crore earlier but with cost cutting going on through the industry, Akshay Kumar will probably pocket a huge 25 crore.

Q. Do you think Akshay Kumar should lower his fees now as he has consecutive flops which were costly mainly due to his high rumeration?
A. Its all about supply and demand he is the only hugely saleable star who is available for banner and producers at large. The other three comparable stars in Shahrukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Hrithik Roshan are mainly involved in home productions or available for select few makers. Also they are very strict about projects they sign which leaves Akshay Kumar with open field to demand the big fees which makers readily give. For recovery sake no star should really be paid more than 15 crore but due to reasons above the demand for Akshay Kumar means he is will be paid what he asks for.
