News Topical, Digital Desk : Akshaye Khanna is currently enjoying the success of his film "Dhurandhar." He's receiving a lot of love for his portrayal of "Rehman Dacoit," which has grossed over ₹500 crore at the domestic box office and over ₹900 crore worldwide.

After "Dhurandhar," Akshaye Khanna will be seen alongside Sunny Deol in two major films: "Border 2" and "Ikka," while he also has Ajay Devgn's "Drishyam 3" in the pipeline. However, reports suggest that Akshaye Khanna has backed out of these three projects after the success of "Dhurandhar." Read the full details in the article below to learn which film he opted out of and which actor he clashed with.

Akshay Khanna left the film even before it started.

According to reports from Bollywood Machine, Akshaye Khanna has left none other than the successful franchise of films that grossed 345 crores at the box office, "Drishyam 3," following the success of Dhurandhar. According to reports, the actor decided to leave the third installment of the successful franchise due to creative differences with the makers.

Reports also claim that Akshaye Khanna demanded a fee increase from the makers after the success of "Dhurandhar." He also wanted to slightly change his look for "Drishyam 3," but the makers were not in favor of this decision, leading to Akshaye Khanna losing the successful franchise.

When will 'Drishyam 3' release in theatres?

There are also reports that Akshaye Khanna and the makers are still in discussions regarding "Drishyam 3," but the film's team has not officially confirmed anything. Considering how well-received Akshaye Khanna's work has been in "Dhurandhar," his exit from this film could be somewhat detrimental.

Ajay Devgn and Tabu starrer "Drishyam 3," the third installment, is directed by Abhishek Pathak. The film is scheduled to release in theaters on October 2, 2026.
