Akshaye Khanna's portrayal in 'Dhurandhar' is receiving praise. Despite the acclaim, the actor remains unfazed, according to casting director Mukesh Chhabra.


Akshaye Khanna's performance as gangster Rehman Dakait in 'Dhurandhar' has become a major talking point, generating considerable buzz online. Despite the widespread acclaim, Khanna's reaction has been understated. He simply said he 'had fun.' Casting director Mukesh Chhabra has shed light on Khanna's dedicated approach to acting, which is clearly reflected in his compelling performance.

Since the release of ‘Dhurandhar’, social media has been abuzz with appreciation for Akshaye Khanna's portrayal of Rehman Dakait. His intense screen presence has led to a flood of memes, fan edits, and viral clips. Some viewers suggest Khanna's performance even overshadowed that of the film’s lead, Ranveer Singh, due to his controlled yet commanding presence.

Mukesh Chhabra Praises Khanna's Unique Acting Style

In a conversation with Miss Malini, Mukesh Chhabra lauded Akshaye Khanna's acting abilities. Chhabra emphasized Khanna's unique approach, stating that his performance never feels copied or borrowed. He brings his own distinct element to every role, delivering a convincing performance that captivates audiences.

Khanna's Reaction to 'Dhurandhar's' Success

Chhabra also revealed Khanna's reaction to the film's positive reception. Despite the overwhelming praise, Khanna seemed unfazed. According to Chhabra, when he spoke to Khanna, the actor simply said, "Haan, mazza aaya." Chhabra added that Khanna is aware of the effort he invests in his work. Observing Khanna on set, Chhabra noted his meticulous preparation, staying focused, carefully managing his aura, and thoroughly studying his scenes. This dedication, Chhabra believes, translates into the magic seen on screen.

Akshaye Khanna Keeps a Low Profile

Despite the success of 'Dhurandhar' and the attention surrounding his performance, Khanna has maintained a low profile. He is currently at his home in Alibaug, where he recently performed a Vastu Shanti hawan, prioritizing personal peace over public celebration.

'Dhurandhar' Box Office Success

Directed by Aditya Dhar, 'Dhurandhar' has achieved significant box office success. According to Sacnilk, the film has grossed over Rs 400 crore in India.
