How do you pronounce "अक्सर" in Hindi?
UK-sur — two schwas, a dry k, and a single tap at the end. Nothing long anywhere.
aksar
Two short vowels and a consonant cluster in the middle: the word is heavy by position but very quick in reality. Adverbs of frequency like this one sit loosely in the clause and take no strong accent, so it should slip past almost unnoticed.

"Maiṁ aksar film dekhne jaataa hooṁ" uses the oblique infinitive dekhne before jaataa, the standard purpose construction with a motion verb. Film begins with a nuqta फ़, so it is a true f, and its cluster gives the sentence a second consonant junction to keep clean.
Where English speakers slip
Both vowels get upgraded from schwas to full vowels and the final syllable gets rhoticised, producing "AK-sarr." Keep both vowels neutral, keep the k dry, and let the r be a single quick contact rather than a sustained sound.
