The following year Kumar played a negative role in Ajnabee, which won him the Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Negative Role.[2][12] In 2004, he starred in the Abbas-Mustan-directed romantic thriller Aitraaz and the David Dhawan-directed romantic comedy Mujhse Shaadi Karogi. His performance in the latter earned him his third nomination for supporting actor at the Filmfare Awards as well as a nomination for best comic role.[13] That year, he presented the television series Seven Deadly Arts with Akshay Kumar[14] and received a nomination for the Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award for his role in the action thriller Khakee. His role in the comedy Garam Masala earned him the Filmfare Award for Best Performance in a Comic Role in 2006.[2][12] In 2007, Kumar starred in four consecutive commercially successful films; the romantic comedy Welcome, the psychological thriller Bhool Bhulaiyaa and the comedies Heyy Babyy and Namastey London.[15]
Kumar earned a nomination for the Filmfare Best Actor Award for his performance in the comic drama Singh Is Kinng (2008). In the same year, he founded the Hari Om Entertainment production company,[16] and hosted the first season of the reality game show Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi. The following year Kumar was awarded the Padma Shri, India's fourth highest civilian award, for his services to the Indian film industry.[17][18] Kumar hosted the first season of MasterChef India in 2010. The following year he founded another production company, Grazing Goat Pictures,[19] and produced the Indo-Canadian hockey-based film Breakaway, which became the highest grossing cross-cultural film at the Canadian box office.[20] In the same year, Kumar voiced Optimus Prime in the Hindi dub of Transformers: Dark of the Moon[21] and appeared in the comedies Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore. The latter two films grossed over ₹100 crore (US$16 million) at the box office.[22] He received another Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award nomination for his portrayal of Lord Krishna in the Umesh Shukla-directed satirical comedy drama OMG – Oh My God! (2012).[23] The following year he starred in the heist thriller Special 26 and the crime drama Once Upon ay Time in Mumbai Dobaara!. In 2014, he starred in the action thriller Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty, which became his third film to gross over ₹100 crore (US$16 million) at the box office,[24] and hosted the reality show Dare 2 Dance.
