EXCLUSIVE: The REAL reason Akshaye Khanna exited | Indian Movie News
A few days in the past, the makers of Drishyam 3 announced that their extremely anticipated movie will likely be launched on October 2, 2026. The press word talked about the title of the main actors of the movie – Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran and Rajat Kapoor. Akshaye Khanna’s title was lacking and it raised eyebrows. The actor is on a high after Dhurandhar and hence, followers have been wanting ahead to seeing him in the next half of Drishyam, particularly when he rocked the show in Drishyam 2 (2022). Meanwhile, experiences emerged that he had walked out of the third half due to remuneration variations. Bollywood Hungama has now discovered more data about what led to his exit.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Akshaye was menacing as the villain in Chhaava, while he stole the show, and how, in Dhurandhar. He has become the next big thing. Realizing the same, he decided to revise his fees. Accordingly, he asked for Rs. 21 crores from the makers of Drishyam 3.”
The source continued, “The makers of Drishyam 3 were taken aback. They tried to reason with him that if he’s paid a bomb, the film would go over-budget. But Akshaye Khanna felt that he was justified in his demand. He knew that his presence now significantly enhanced the excitement for a film.”
Meanwhile, another source said, “We also heard that there were a few more fronts where Akshaye Khanna and the makers had a disagreement as well. One of them was that Akshaye suggested that he’d like to wear a wig. The makers were not comfortable with the idea, probably because he was without a wig in the second part.”
The earlier source then said, “Since Akshaye Khanna’s demands were not met, he decided to walk out of Drishyam 3. Of course, he wished the makers well. The parting happened on a good note and the makers hope to collaborate with Akshaye in future when they’ll be on the same page.”
