Akshaye Khanna opens up on premature balding, Aamir Khan stealing his role and more 

Akshaye Khanna is like that student in the class who doesn't speak much , minds his own business ,scores well and also gets respected by all of the classmates

Akshaye Khanna has got like a separate fan base. He's beyond hits or flops. He's got a very strong cult following.

Fast forward to premature balding is 47:01. For those who want hear his experience on this issue and the self acceptance of the situation of life that goes the other direction from where we wanted that to be.

46:48 They talk about the baldness. Give me likes I deserve it !!!

He is so underrated. Hulchul and Hungama are some the best comedies of Bollywood

"Did losing your mom and dad have a huge impact on you as a person?" That's why they say interviewing is an art. He had the chance to interview such an interesting man, and boy did he bomb.

Its Bollywood's loss if they cant write something for such a great and mature actor! Respect!

At least he doesn't carry fake wig and 'hero' persona.

There is something in him..even if his presence without any dielogue will make you look at him.. he is too good. No one can do intense and loud scenes like him.

He likes to keep so much to himself, just like his character in "Dil Chahta Hai". :) Under-rated actor for sure.

Akshaye is so eloquent. His answers are to the point. No fluff!! Kudos...🙏

The best part I liked his revealing is about Taare Zameen Par. How easily he accepted that it was better done by Aamir. This makes him better person.

Hair or no hair doesn't matter at all. Akshaye is one of d finest actors in Bollywood. Par excellence! Love him. Looking forward to seeing him in more movies...He deserves so much more!

Best line from great actor like Akshaya Khanna: "Acting has nothing to do with your personality" 16:21

The interviewer is really immature and doesn't know what to ask and how deep to go into someone's personal life. Akshaye managed to handle it gracefully without being rude to him.

whenever I see him , only one word comes to my mind - UNDERRATED .

Mayank: "How do you overcome this difficult phase of 6 years of no work" Akshaye:"You don't overcome it, you go through it". Few of the handful actors who speak straight from the heart!!

He is eloquent and humble, not afraid of admitting where he lacks certain skillsets nor hesitates to admire others!! A rare comditty in in that particular industry which is still far behind to appreciate such people and their talent!!

One of the finest actor in indian cinema also the most underrated

It needs steel balls to carry such baldness around being an actor. He is a lovely guy. And a great actor. Very nice voice.

Who has this courage to come bald in front of camera? bold and honest Akshaye.

That man is too real and grounded for the interviewer. The interviewer wanted drama

He is among the finest and most sensible actor of our generation

He needs to come back. He is I and my Husband Fav actor, everytime we watch his movies we miss seeing him and we think how much underated he is. I wish I could meet him I feel he is very talented and there is so much to learn from him.

Akshaye is such a sorted guy. "My usual day? Why would you even want to know?" He is an interviewer's nightmare. 😎😎. The interviewer here did pretty good

Never seen some actor as honest and true to himself as him! May he get the projects he deserves.

Bald or not, he is handsome AF

There are some people who has separate fan club like Akshay khanna, Abhay Deol,lucky Ali..they are beyond everyone..

Akshaye Khanna is Hollywood art film material❤️......Bollywood doesn't deserve him 😐

A real honest man with clear thoughts and very clear about how he wants to live his life. I loved his response of wanting to be alone as he couldn't see himself committing for a lifetime and didn't want to ruin another person's life. What a beautiful statement. ❤️

Akshaye is completely sorted person. It takes many years to reach this level.

Few people from the industry are honest and he’s is the one but truly underrated

Very happy to see him in DRISHYAM 2, he definitely needs public love

Akshaye is so amazing! If only he knew how much everyone adores him and his work! I love his personality and the way he is. He is so unique unlike everyone else.

I can listen to AK for hours. Love how he view things from a different angle. Calm, relaxed and pure heart. Can't see any greed in him at all. Go with the flow as he says.

The most talented actor. Actually he is the real perfectionist of the Bollywood.

Kudos to Mayank for being so patient and soft with a reticent person. He ensured that Akshaye feels safe enough to share more, with every question. Lovely interview, thanks!

The only actor have come across who spoke immaculately stating " that point IN time " and not " not that point OF time" .....excellent command of English.

Interviewer: aap break time me kya karate ho? Akhaye: Tu janke kya karega.......😂😂😂

I wouldn't have seen any interview for an hour but the kind of honesty and sense Akshaye made during the interview made me realise he will become a classic actor over the period of time.

Fantastic reply: Acting has nothing to do with your personality. This shows the outlook of an actor a true actor. Loved It.

I adore him! Akshaye's one of the few actors who does his job because of his love for acting and not for fame or to follow in his dad's footsteps. He's obviously better than most actors. I love his honest answers. Most interviews are about the actors' personal lives and gossip than about their careers, but not this one. Akshaye puts his foot down and chooses not to answer when he feels the questions are intrusive or unnecessary. Absolutely love it. :) Mayank tried hard to rephrase questions to put his point across better and maintained his cool throughout so I appreciate that (there were many roadblocks on this one). But a sincere request to the team is to know the personality of the one you're interviewing and ask questions according to that, esp sensitive ones, so they don't get offended while giving the audience the answer they need to maintain their interest. Also, the intro (about actors having the same initials, AK) was sincere but a bad idea. If you observed that Akshaye doesn't like to be compared and is very individualistic, you'd know and come up with a better one. The point is to make them shine and not to stir up their emotions and put them in an uncomfortable spot. Please take my feedback with an open mind, I speak from having done acting myself and coaching others on professional skills such as interviewing is one of the things I do for a living. :)

Underappreciated, undervalued. Let's bring AK on #TheRanveerShow

I loved this interview. Akshaye is so good at being private but still polite When Mayank asked about his mom being private, he said, "thats how she wanted it". Beautiful.

Akshaye is one of the finest and most underrated actors.extremely mature and too real and honest for this industry.his non filmy attitude got him a little sidelined which he doesn't really care for,but a wee bit disillusionment on his face is hard to miss.

Akshaye Khanna is the Baap of today's modern actors,heroes.

I respect him for gracefully accepting his baldness although he was concerned about his looks. He is a genuine banda. Mast

Host is pointing his leg towards Akshaye while he is pointing it otherway..I respect Akshaye more now..he is a legend.

Interviewer : “Between Mom & Dad who were you closer to?” Akshaye : “I think I was close to them both but in different ways” That was very well put, I can totally relate.

For someone who's self-admittedly uncomfortable in interviews, he's surprisingly articulate and well thought-out in his answers.

This man has such a beautiful smile. He smiles and then his eyes twinkles. There is a specific scene in Taal where he smiles as it rains whilst Mansi (Aishwarya’s character) dances.

In bollywood he says he is ok with aamir taking Taare Zameen Par and aamir did a better job, shows his character. He is too good for a filth like hindi film industry.

Akhay Khanna is so Exclusive and talented, so is his Brother and so was their handsome Father! He is like a fresh breadth, no air, no wig, no I-Am-So-Cool attitude like Ranveer, he is just being himself!

Akshaye is really confident . The fact being he doesn’t give a shit about his baldness . Although , his contemporaries are busy getting their hairline weaved. He is a very profound , knowledgeable , spiritually aware and calm person . Plus his acting skills are amazing . Anchor needs to be a bit sensitive and sensible.

What a line: "Section 375 will age very well" Akshaye Rocks

This interviewer has many problems going on with him - 1. He gets too uneasily personal and asks questions that are noone's business or concern. 2. He doesn't know how to sit. His shoe is facing the guest. 3. I have seen him giggle away offensively in a previous interview and that is demeaning to the interviewee. 4. He often cuts the guest midway or doesn't let them talk at all. Please learn some basic manners specially when interviewing a thorough gentleman like Akshaye Khanna.

None of akshaye Khanna's movie roles ever disappointed the audiences. Such an underrated talented actor.

People says that he is looking old but here in this interview he is looking good respective of his age ,he looks fitter than most of other actors in same industry .

One of the most honest interviews i came across recently. Its saddening to see such talented actor in a depressing state of his life.

This is the most real, raw and still most entertaining interview I have seen of a movie star. Best part being the interviwer after asking a question, in frustration saying “of course you dont remeber” 😂

It’s interesting that the interviewer is being so smug and thinks he is so intellectual.... Akshaye is literally owning him with every question! Killing him with pure honesty!

Taal, Aa Ab Laut Chalain, Dahek, Doli Saja Kai Rakhna, Dil Chahta Hai, Hulchul, Hungama, Humraaz, Race are some of his best movies. These movies are still loved today.

Man, he's so calm and down to earth. May God bless him 🙏

Both Ajay Devgn and Akshay Khanna are very reserved people with an inexplicable raw and sensual magnetism about them. Can't be described in words. Both have very expressive eyes.

He is by far the most talented actor in bollywood. The way his expressions go along with the scene in any movie is just magical.

He's so good in everything. I suspect he uses his work as a form of catharsis , cause he's guarded about everything, which reminds me of De Niro. Only Akshaye's even more private. I hope he's around for another few decades at least, cause he's the epitome of a craftsman being fully versed in his craft.

This interviewer lacks tact. He clearly doesn't have the knack of interviewing like Simi Grewal, Irfan of Rajya Sabha TV, or Neelesh Misra. He didn't bother to understand his subject. Interviewing is not just asking and answering, it's a fine art of getting your subject to open up and feel comfortable doing so. This interviewer did none of that. Also, WTF was that intro?

2-3 times I felt he's gonna beat the interviewer 🤣

He is the Fahad Fazil of Bollywood...! The only actor i like in bollywood... Reserved, introverted and quiet ,but straight and honest when he speaks..... He is a class act, like Fahad...and just like Fahad, doesnt care about his hairline .. and refuses to wear wigs..! keep going, the best is yet to come..! ❤❤

This is the first time in my lifetime that I watched full 1 hour 3 minutes & 59 seconds video on RU-vid Without skipping a single second Love u Akshaye Love ur personality Hats off to u for giving us such a precious time of yours in all the movies

He is just incredibly honest as a person, judging by the interview.

What a genuine guy!! I'll have his pic on my wall from now! Love and respect to Akshaye!!

such a shallow title. He spoke so much and so honestly on so many topics and you thought of this title?

19:08 About Aamir 47:01 - Premature Balding Nice interview. Great Actor

He is highly spiritual. This is for sure. The reason he does not remember the past too well is because his subconscious is always upto higher philosophies and mysterious of life. Old soul.

Joaquin Phoenix of Bollywood. Hope he gets his Joker soon!

He can be a Netflix material in some thing like Indian version of “breaking bad”

He is a gem. I wanna see him in at least 2 dozen more movies.

He's struggled and proved his worth. The only star son I wouldn't put into a basket of nepotism.

I’m crazy about this guy he got this swag with him gosh his smile 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 his acting is amazing I want to see more movies with him

Little more Bigger fan after this interview…. Smartest diplomatic answers … wow 🤩

Akshaye has a lot of patience to deal with this weirdo.

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. Akshaye Khanna comes across as an actor and a man of real substance.

Went through same ordeal, either a confident man emerges or crumbles under societal pressure. Good to see Akshay carries the look in a proper way.

19.52 Interviewer- you said no to kurbaan,a dharma film Akshay- So What.🤣🤣🤣nailed it

There's a confident introvert.

His facial expression with eyebrows... n timing everything is perfect ... just he needs more chance to show

One of the finest actor, very natural and unique smile he has.

The interviewer tends to like his voice a bit more than required, liked the fact that akshaye khanna kept it real

What the names mean: Akshay - Fresh, No Decay Akshaye - To Live Long, Immortal I like Akshaye more. Much more. Specially Akshaye Khanna :)

His father had great body genetics. It totally shows in his and his brother's body frame too. Not many Indians have that.

This is the second interview of him I have watched , the first one with Simi Garewal and both are very authentic. I love the fact that he never tries to be politically correct. I don't think anyone can act the glass breaking scene in Taal better than him.He is an amazing actor :)

Most intelligent interview I have ever seen by an actor ever. This guy didn't disappoint of the kind of perception his personality gives and what he really is. Matched completely

I always liked Akshaye, he is classy and I also loved his acting. Too bad he did not get good movies.

Never seen a host drinking coffee while the guest has nothing 🙂

He is too real for the interview.

Listening to Akshaye was such a treat. It's hard to believe that he has just done 10+2. His spoken English is like an English professor's English.

He ofcourse remembers everything, he is just avoiding idiotic questions from this anchor !

Zero pretentiousness. Most honest interview i have seen of bollywood actor.

Nor do he usse wigs or transplant... his confidence is high. I respect him he's a very talented actor
