Akshaye Khanna to reunite with 'Tees Maar Khan' co-star Akshay Kumar for 'Bhagam Bhag 2' post 'Dhurandhar' success: Report

Akshaye Khanna should be on cloud nine post two blockbusters in the same year- Chhaava and Dhurandhar. The recluse star is getting immense praise for his restrained and remarkable performance as Rehman Dakait. And if a report by Box-Office India is to be believed, he could be reuniting with his ‘T_ees Maar Khan_’ co-star Akshay Kumar for ‘Bhagam Bhag 2.’

Nothing about the development has been confirmed yet.

Akshaye Khanna seems to have become the flavour of the month post his bone-chilling and barbaric performance in Aditya Dhar’s severely discussed and debated spy drama Dhurandhar. The pensive star essayed the role of Pakistani gangster Rahman Dakait. The vintage Akshaye Khanna smirks were sprinkled on the heinous demeanour of this dreaded gangster.

Dhar allows his actor to chew the scenery and fascinatingly fulfills his wish of starring in an action film. There’s swag even in his sorrows. He dies a painful death in an encounter that happens in 2009 in the film, inspired by real-life events and incidents.

His cousin Uzair took command of his gang after his death.
