Mumbai, Jun 7 (PTI) With Sajid Nadiadwala's multi-million budgeted movie 'Kambakkht Ishq' ready to hit the screens on July 10, Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is keeping his fingers crossed. The star had two successive flops this year after a dream run since 2006 during which his films raked up over Rs 500 crore business world-wide.

His latest releases 'Chandni Chowk to China" and "Tasveer 8x10" have not done well.

Now, after a two month lull and producers-multiplexes row over revenue sharing being resolved amicably, "Kambakkht Ishq" is the first big budgeted film to be released next month.

Talking to reporters here, Akshay said he is keeping his fingers crossed and hoped that his new film directed by debutant Sabbir Khan does well at the box office.

He said his success ratio with new directors has been very good.

"I worked with new directors like Abbas-Mustan, Vipul Shah, Sajid Khan and the films did phenomenal business," he said.

"Kambakkht Ishq" is not an action film, he said.

"It is a romantic comedy. I am doing a romantic film after a long time. The film is technically very superior," he said.
