MUMBAI: Akshay Kumar ‘s latest films, the acclaimed ‘Special 26’ and average ‘Khiladi 786’ has surely put the actor in the top league. While the actor has already said, he has no qualms over his films releasing on the same day with Shah Rukh Khan, the actor seems be in the mood to hike his fee. 

At the event of Eveready’s launch of new range of products, of which Akshay Kumar is the brand ambassador, he was at his wittiest best.

A reporter asked him about the rates, referring to products. Instead, Akshay Kumar surprised audiences and the press by counter-questioning, “Am I increasing my rates?” And immediately a burst of laughter followed.

Akshay Kumar also answered the question himself and said, “ If something is selling and selling nice, there is no harm in increasing the rates. And if I am increasing the rates, why someone would have a problem?”
