Ranveer Singh’s phenomenal transformation in Aditya Dhar’s Dhurandhar has garnered widespread praise. However, another actor who has quietly stolen the spotlight from the lead star is Akshaye Khanna, who portrays the enigmatic Rehman Dakait. His magnetic screen presence has left theatres buzzing, and even those who haven’t watched the film can’t escape his Sher-E-Baloch moment that is breaking the internet.
Must Check: Chhaava: Vicky Kaushal and Akshaye Khanna were not the ‘first choice’ of the makers? What many are surprised to learn is that the striking dance set to the Arabic track FA9LA, performed by Bahraini rapper Flipperachi, wasn’t choreographed in advance. It was entirely Akshaye’s spontaneous creation.
The Moment of Magic: Akshaye’s Unexpected Dance In a conversation with Mid Day, choreographer Vijay Ganguly revealed how the iconic moment came alive on set.
He explained, “The song is a celebration of Akshaye’s character being crowned as the Sher-E-Baloch. Originally, he was supposed to enter, walk through the dancers, and sit on the throne. Seeing the scene’s mood and the dancers’ performance, the fantastic actor that Akshaye is, he said he would dance a bit when he walks in. None of us knew what he was going to do. Akshaye entered the scene, took it from that point, and spontaneously performed.”
