I respect Akshay's attitude, he is straight forward and direct that the host couldn't handle

[@zeeshanlalani2160]

He was honest af

[@ms-pn8mp]

I love his comments about " acting has nothing to do with ur personality" something that bollywood "superstars" and flashy directors and producers doesnt seemed to know

[@yzx9122]

He is the perfect for sid.No one could beat that character without Akshay Khanna

[@add1310]

The most underrated actor

[@rcdemonic2320]

Being Reserved does not mean that the person is rude. He actually is so perfect for the character As Sid & he had so many aspects in his personality as it is in real life.

[@aditikamble7001]

If he had been in Hollywood he would have been considered such a good actor. In bollywood where all people want are flashy actors , he will obviously be under rated.

[@ssunny0927]

A closer look at his physique, he could be our Jason Statham 😉😆

[@singhiskingkhalsa665]

aamir khan is nothing infront of AKSHAYE KHANNA ✅ but really luck is something ✅

[@limtitikhir4811]

You may call anyone in Bollywood fake but you can't say that to Akshay Khanna. He is true, transparent and straight forward.

[@yaseenissa5537]

Very straightforward guy Akshaye Khanna is 👌👌❤❤. He's not fake at all. What you see is what you get 👊. In fact, Akshaye Khanna was much better in the role of Siddharth. No other actor could've performed Siddharth how Akshaye Khanna did 💓💓💓.

[@surajalbadie]

This man is miles ahead of time 🔥

[@TheAvidWatcher]

Takeaway from this interview: Casting is important. The director's voice needs to be given most importance.

[@wealthlockhead]

Dil Chahta Hai is my all time favorite ❤

[@hiteshwaghela4230]

akshay khanna is stud in acting and in real life as well, only his presence can grab anyones attention

[@techgirl1312]

I don’t know why, but I don’t like the interviewer. Anyway, Akshaye, he was honest and straight forward. I hope he does more film.

[@pranavkumar2008]

All interviewers are same. They tend to take away a part of your soul.

[@AyAy008]

The interviewer comes across kinda rude.

[@bharatdsharma5062]

He is so articulate and mature in his persona.

[@mistshad2784]

Thrs nothing that a person of his calibre shud get depressed , abt his looks its jus a cake walk for him to get a hair transplant done,, he s such a terrific actor in terms of talent,

[@user-ic5ih5wn3n]

He is a decent actor.. His acting is like loved by everyone.

[@yatribaxi1307]

Interviewer has decided to demean Akshay Khanna, by only asking how many projects he has been dropped....insane...AK is far better artist than bunch of many considered as huge Stars..it's unfortunate for Indian cinema and India that we didn't get more movies from such a talented artist.

[@nischalmaharjan3098]

He is still alive , don't talk as if he is is no more or stopped acting

[@mithileshkapre]

Straight forward answers. By his answers he is not worried about anything but then he doesn’t look happy as well. Kuch toh gadbad hai.

[@tweetyrocks7686]

He is lonely,how can he be happy?

[@mithileshkapre]

@@tweetyrocks7686 We don't know if he is lonely :) Happiness can't be proportional to loneliness

[@tweetyrocks7686]

@@mithileshkapre yes he is indeed lonely bcs for a long time media doesnt say anything abt who is his gf,if he has noone in life,so ofcourse he is lonely and i can tell who is lonely.anyway there is nothing wrong to be lonely,its completely ok.

Great actor. I m sure he would have been powerful actor , if he had taken a bit more care.

[@gift4636]

He is so straightforward..straight away you can see that he is not making up anything

[@MKhan-bz9df]

Some of the questions were probing and downright insulting...Asking your guest why his films didn't work or why was he cut out from some of the blockbusters is a bit rude ... I guess Akshay handled them quite well...I think we all know by now that it takes more than acting skills to survive in the industry... Akshay was a good actor but he couldn't sail through ... Wish him luck for his new endeavors...

[@arjunk100]

Dil Chahta hai and his character Sid truly sticks with all...there couldn't be a better movie in times to come and to match its class...DCH was way ahead of its time and a trend setter...such lovely memories ❤️❤️

[@jessica26138]

He has lost so much muscle mass & elasticity. Dont know why!! I mean saif & amir still look younger to him..he should take care of himself & do more movies. He is an amazing actor & has potential to do wonders on screen.

[@iarif19]

One of the finest actor in bollywood...👌

God bless Akahay khanna decent Actor love him 💐🤲

[@TubeYoYOYO]

Akshaye is pure class - miles ahead of his peers

[@Prasen1729]

He is a such a good actor. Bunch of others are there as heros doing average acting, average to poor movies but this guy is almost doing nothing. Pity. Hope he gets some work, good films, good projects that he likes and provide us more and more joy.

[@aditichowdhary5221]

Sid in Dil Chahta is like a guy you wouldn't understand at all when you watch this movie as a kid but willl fall in love when you grow up.

[@icicestrosehill3504]

The best of star's kid. Even way more talented that his dad.r.i.p He is truly a genuis. Genuises often are bipolar or very different character.

[@userKK2023]

He's a good actor, but calling him 'way' more talented than his dad is disrespecting a veteran.

[@ajaydesai7619]

What? ?more talented then handsome hunk vinod khanna.. jisne amitabh bachchan ko bhi piche chod diya tha.. r u joking man..

[@tweetyrocks7686]

@@userKK2023 no its not disrespecting,he is way way mire talented then his father.

[@TheValobalok]

Indeed! Even if it was any kind of nepotism, he was a great product of it and certainly way more talented than his father in terms of acting skills.

[@hinaz85]

Akshaye is so real. I could imagine having a nice sit down real convo with him

[@sunitsethi]

Bad question - Sid’s role suited your real reserved and shy personality! Akshaya immediately rejected it and in fact ridiculed saying acting had got nothing to do with real personality.

[@ritiknoatilhari5531]

Don't know whether he would have performed better than Amir as Akash but no one could've pulled Sid's role as Akshaye did.

[@surajpatil9542]

Such an underrated actor...👌👌👌

Well, just my favorite actor in Bollywood, maybe even of all time.

[@tagjones213]

Akshaye Khanna is way too cagey for an interview... it would be a challenge having a flowing conversation with him in a setting like this. Most of the answers are 'i dont know', 'i dont remember', 'why would you want to know', sluggish body language..smh

sorry but it seems his career his baldness played a big part in the way he is now so much reluctant to be polite! agressive! not talktative! thats not how you give an interview.... you can clearly see the host is so uncomfy , even finding hard to find the right questions straight away after being pushed over with blunt answer lol but i can feel aswell its not his fault, deep inside he seems depressed for what happened to his looks aswell,and the way his career turned out to be, must be hard

[@GSS77712]

He's always been like that. He isn't faking anything.

[@FilmsUltimate]

I agree

[@icicestrosehill3504]

Thats how genuises are.they are not like us....very different personality.. yes he is a genuis actor and he always been like dat

I dnt know its Akshay's memory or he is lying....

[@Jehandaruwalla]

Feroz had signed khanna fo a film named janasheen.but whether it was the same script of 2003 janasheen or it was the script of prem agan & feroz changed the title of janasheen to prem agan or he shelved janasheen in 98 & made prem agan with fardeen & later revived janasheen in 2003,we dont know all this
