Akshay Kumar remembers one of the worst movies of his career

Throughout his long and illustrious career in Bollywood, Akshay Kumar has been a part of several iconic and memorable films and some which he would want the audience to forget about. His 2002 film 'Jaani Dushman' falls in the latter category. Featuring an ensemble cast including Sunny Deol, Suniel Shetty, Sonu Nigam, Arshad Warsi, Manisha Koirala and Armaan Kohli, 'Jaani Dushman' is considered one of the worst Bollywood movies of all time.

However, despite the terrible reception, the film played an important role in Akshay's life. During his recent appearance on 'Koffee With Karan', the actor shared that he was able to afford his house cause of this particular film. Akshay recalled, "I was (hired) on a per-day basis. I was being paid by the day and when the villain killed my character, my shoot go over."

The actor continued, "I have to thank the other hero, who was scheduled to start shooting, but got stuck in New York. When I got to know about that, I went up to the director and asked him, 'Main vapas aa jaun?'(Should I come back?). The director told me, 'Your character isn't dead. He's alive, he's in a coma'."

Akshay added, "I shot for another 5 days and earned more money. I was in an urgent situation with the house that I wanted to buy, the one I live in. The money that I earned from Jaani Dushman, I went and gave to the guy who was selling the house."
