Three actors rejected Rehman Dekait role in Dhurandhar. Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar's Dhurandhar franchise captured the imagination of all breaking the box office records with utmost ease.
Akshaye Khanna's role in Dhurandhar as Rahman Dekait left all stunned. Casting Director Mukesh Chhabra made a startling revelations.
He said "I can’t take any names but 2-3 actors had said no for his role. I am sure they are regretting that decision today. An actor from South and two from Bollywood gave very weird logic," he shared. "They said that this is an ensemble cast and its actually Ranveer’s film, but Aditya moves on from negative thoughts quickly."
Earlier he added "Initially, even Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt and Akshaye Khanna were not sure about the film," and "only R Madhavan said yes," and others took time.
He revealed “When you start a film, you wonder how so many big actors will come on board. At first, none of this was there, but gradually, as we discussed, it started falling into place. Most actors usually worry about how much screen time they will get. We said that here, the impact is what matters. If you look at Madhavan's part, with only 12 to 14 days of work, the impact of the role is huge.”
