‘Happy to see Akshaye Khanna getting the respect as an actor he deserved’

Filmmaker Rohit Shetty said he was genuinely happy to see Akshaye Khanna finally receiving the long-overdue respect as an actor post the release of Dhurandhar, and he didn’t hold back his admiration.
In a heartfelt message, Rohit applauded Aditya Dhar and his crew, saying they had “created a monster” with their upcoming project. He also gave a shout-out to Ranveer Singh, calling out, “Ranveer mere bhai… apna time aagaya.” He took to Instagram, where he shared the poster and wrote: “Take a bow Aditya Dhar and team… you have created a monster… Ranveer mere bhai… apna time aagaya… happy to see Akshaye getting the love and respect as an actor he deserved for years…”
Rohit said that he still remembers the night before “Uri: The Surgical Strike” starring Vicky Kaushal released in 2019 when he watched the film with Aditya. “Your journey from Uri to Dhurandhar as a producer and director is inspiring… I am so proud of you, my brother… yeh naya Hindi cinema hai, ab yeh ghus ke marega… waiting for 19th March,” added Rohit.
Dhurandhar also stars R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, Sara Arjun and Rakesh Bedi with Manav Gohil, Danish Pandor, Saumya Tandon, Gaurav Gera, and Naveen Kaushik in supporting roles. (IANS)
