Right from his acting debut in 1997 with Himalay Putra and his wider recognition with J.P. Dutta\u2019s blockbuster war drama Border, Akshaye Khanna<\/a> has had a career marked by powerful performances. Over the years, he has showcased his versatility in films like Taal, Dil Chahta Hai, Gandhi, My Father, Section 375, and Drishyam 2.<\/p>\n In recent years, he has also impressed audiences with his scene-stealing villain performances. Last year, his chilling portrayal of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb in Laxman Utekar\u2019s Chhaava<\/a> earned widespread acclaim. This was followed by another terrific performance as Rehman Dakait, who was the primary antagonist in Aditya Dhar\u2019s spy actioner Dhurandhar<\/a>.<\/p>\n Now, let\u2019s take a look at the box office performance of the films in which he played a villain, whose cumulative total is nearing the \u20b92000 crore mark in India.<\/p>\n Films Starring Akshaye Khanna As a Villain \u2013 Box Office Performance<\/p>\n Let\u2019s take a look at the Indian box office performance of the movies featuring Akshaye Khanna in a villainous\/negative role:<\/p>\n Humraaz (2002): \u20b916.42 crores Total Cumulative Box Office (India): \u20b91,656.94 crores<\/p>\n The above box office figures suggest that a major portion of this \u20b91,656.94 crore Indian total has come from his two biggest blockbusters: Chhaava and Dhurandhar, the latter being the biggest earner of his career. Having said that, some of his earlier films, like Race and Dishoom, have also made a decent contribution, as they\u2019ve added \u20b9130.64 crores to the tally.<\/p>\n Now, it will be remarkable to see whether this total can cross the massive \u20b92,000 crore benchmark in the coming years. As of now, his films as a villain need another \u20b9343.06 crores to reach that milestone. It might take just one or two strong performers to take it past the \u20b92,000 crore mark. Let\u2019s see how soon that happens.<\/p>\n What Is The Plot of Dhurandhar?<\/p>\n Directed by Aditya Dhar, the spy action thriller follows a covert Indian intelligence mission that recruits a man, Hamza Ali Mazari \/ Jaskirat Singh Rangi (Ranveer Singh), to serve as an undercover operative. Sent deep into Karachi\u2019s criminal and terror networks, he must survive betrayal, violence, and shifting loyalties while working to dismantle the syndicate from within. It also features Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, Arjun Rampal, Sara Arjun, and Rakesh Bedi in key roles.<\/p>\n Dhurandhar \u2013 Trailer<\/p>\n Stay tuned to Koimoi for more box office<\/a> updates!<\/p>\n Must Read: Arjun Rampal\u2019s Villain Roles Near 2000 Crore At Indian Box Office: From Ra.One To Dhurandhar 2<\/a><\/p>\n Follow Us: Facebook<\/a> | Instagram<\/a> | Twitter<\/a> | YouTube<\/a> | Google News<\/a><\/p>\n
