Ever earlier than Dhurandhar appeared in theatres, a portion of followers claimed that Akshaye, because the antagonist Rehman Dakait, was the strongest character within the movie. Now that the film is out there on Netflix, opinions on the web have modified.
Did Akshaye Khanna overshadow Ranveer?
After seeing the film, many believed that Ranveer Singh, not Akshaye, was the star. An individual wrote, “Finally watched Dhurandhar. It’s a well-written and well-made movie, though there is too much unnecessary gore. Everyone has acted well, but Ranveer is spectacular! Akshay Khanna has great screen presence, but I don’t think he has overshadowed Ranveer.” “Akshay is not even one per cent of all the hype that was made,” learn a remark.
Finally watched Dhurandhar. It’s a nicely written and nicely made film, an excessive amount of pointless gore although. Everyone has acted nicely however Ranveer is spectacular! Akshay Khanna has nice display presence however I don’t suppose he has overshadowed Ranveer.

OTT viewers name out Akshaye’s overacting
A tweet learn, “Dhurandhar has been watched, and I have a different review for the movie, but the thing that pissed me off most is ‘Akshaye Khanna overshadowed Ranveer’ PR gimmick because he didn’t, not even one per cent. Smoking in slow mo with a fancy wig isn’t called acting and overshadowing. He was even terrible in his son’s death sequence. Ranveer ate him whenever they appeared together, and if you think he did, then you have 0 knowledge about how films are made and what’s ‘acting’, but jobless people of social media always try to s*** jobless flop actors to degrade leading stars..! Anybody who deserves credit for Dhurandhar’s success after ‘propaganda’ is only Ranveer Singh.”
DHURANDHAR has been watched* and I’ve totally different evaluation for film however the factor that pissed me off most is ” Akshaye khanna overshadowed Ranveer” PR gimmick bcz he did not, not even one %. Making a lakwa like face, smoking in sluggish mo with fancy wig is not known as appearing and… pic.twitter.com/bY5apIlRVP

An X person stated, “I didn’t like his acting at all, nor did I find him menacing. Arjun Rampal, on the other hand, was devil personified.” “Akshaye did overacting in every scene, I feel. Ranveer was brilliant,” learn one other remark. Another tweet learn, “Finally someone said it, same feeling bro, Akshay Khanna did over the top acting.”
I did not like his appearing in any respect, nor discovered him menacing. Arjun Rampal, then again, was satan personified.

Another fan stated, “Akshay Khanna was really good in his son’s death scene. Though I agree Akshay Khanna hasn’t overshadowed Ranveer even a bit! Ranveer stole each and every scene he was in.”
