Akshay Khanna Dhurandhar Look: 'Dhurandhar' was released on December 5 and its bumper earning streak continues. This film is making new records every day in terms of earnings. It is directed by Aditya Dhar. The audience is liking everything from the story of the film to the characters. Everyone is praising the acting of actor Akshay Khanna who plays the role of Rehman dacoit. Apart from this, his dance moves are also becoming very viral. Many of his reels are viral on social media.

Akshay Khanna won the hearts of the audience by playing the role of Rahman dacoit in the film. But you will be surprised to know that he did not like his own looks in the beginning. Recently, the film's costume designer Smriti Chauhan told that Akshay had initially rejected his look. Costume designer Smriti Chauhan praised Aditya Dhar in an episode on the digital commentary channel on YouTube and told about it.

Akshay's look in the film

Costume designer Smriti Chauhan told that initially Akshay did not like his look much. Many meetings were held, ideas were changed and changed again. Only then was Akshay's look ready. Earlier it was thought that Akshay would wear only Pathani outfit, but Akshay suggested that he would also wear kurta and jeans. But the character the actor is playing has come from the streets and during the change in the story, he gets involved in politics. It was also important to show his change during that time. So he was shown in linen and denim and then in silk-wool pathani. Which became the most special look of the film.

Talking further, he also praised the film's director Aditya Dhar. He told that Aditya knew that people would stop at the time of entry of Rehman dacoit. Therefore, he played an important role in creating this visual impact. Initially, many look tests were done to Akshay Khanna. But he was not completely satisfied with them. He told the team that the roughness and street effect should definitely be visible in the look.

Look of viral dance moves

Talking about the look of the viral dance moves, he said that initially the idea was that all the dancers would wear black clothes. But seeing the traditional style of real Balochis, Aditya Dhar suggested that the dancers would wear white outfits. To make Akshay look different, he was dressed in black. His Pathani look was finalized keeping in mind the Balochi culture, which the audience is liking very much.
