<p>Indian actor Akshay Kumar just cannot seem to catch a break. He has not had a good year. He was part of five films (not including a cameo in 'An Action Hero') and the only one among them that did not bomb at the box office was 'Cuttputlli' — because it did not release in theatres at all, instead premiering on Disney+ Hotstar. One might argue that doing too many films may make moviegoers bored of watching you on the big screen again and again, and this is the reason his films are failing. Things are so bad that the actor is already receiving ridicule for a project slated to be released only next year.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The reason? In a video he shared to mark the beginning of the shooting of his upcoming film 'Vedat Marathe Veer Shivaji', Akshay also revealed the first look of himself in the main role of Chhatrapati Shivaji. Shivaji was a 17th-century ruler who established the Maratha Empire and defied the Mughal forces led by Aurangzeb with guerrilla tactics. On social media, not many looked at his Shivaji getup and rather focussed on the anachronistic lighting on the chandelier above his head. Indeed, the chandelier is studded with lights using small electric lights in a 17th-century setting. Electric lights will not be invented until 1880, more than two centuries in the future.&nbsp;</p>
