Even the release of "A Flying Jatt" and "Happy Bhag Jayegi" could not affect the box office run of "Rustom" much. The film has already become Akshay's third highest grossing movie ever and is likely to surpass the lifetime collection of his second biggest hit "Airlift." However, Sonakshi Sinha's "Akira" is slated for release on Sept. 2 that might affect the earnings of Akshay's film.
