Aditya Dhar’s spy action thriller Dhurandhar, starring Ranveer Singh and a star-studded ensemble, released in theatres on December 5. The film, also featuring Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Sara Arjun, Arjun Rampal, and Sanjay Dutt, has been generating massive buzz from critics and audiences alike.
Among the performances, Akshaye Khanna’s portrayal of Rehman Dakait has emerged as a standout. His intense presence and layered acting have captivated viewers, making his character both menacing and magnetic. Fans on social media have hailed his work as one of the finest of his career.
The film’s viral track FA9LA has further amplified Akshaye’s impact. The song showcases Rehman Dakait’s aura and swagger, and snippets have been widely shared across platforms. Fans have praised both Akshaye Khanna’s screen presence and the staging of the song.
Adding to the wave of appreciation, renowned filmmaker Farah Khan — who previously collaborated with Akshaye in Tees Maar Khan — lauded his performance. On Monday, Farah Khan took to Instagram to share a fan-made reel comparing Akshaye’s scenes from Dhurandhar with a memorable moment from her earlier film.
