Filmmaker Suneel Darshan recalled Akshay Kumar almost had tears while telling him how a producer insulted him when his films flopped. "The producer told Akshay, 'Tumhari aukaat nahi hai ki tumhari film ka banner lagaya jaaye (You're not worth putting up banner for)'," Suneel said. "I got the biggest banner in Juhu with just Akshay's face on it," he added.
