Actor Mukesh Khanna blamed Akshay Kumar for the box office failure of 'Samrat Prithviraj', in which the actor portrayed Rajput ruler Prithviraj Chauhan. "It was his fault as...actor that he couldn't do justice to the film. Even the director (Chandra Prakash Dwivedi) admitted in an interview with me that they cut corners," he said in a chat with Siddharth Kannan.
