Notably India TV has honoured Akshaye Khanna with the Best Actor award. Akshaye was always known as a bankable actor and he has proved it in 2025.
The actor appeared in Chhaava as Aurangzeb, and then went on play Rehman Dakait in Dhurandhar.
Recently India TV hosted a poll urging the readers to vote for who they thought was the Best Actor of 2025. And they certainly made their choice.
Akshaye Khanna was the audience-choice Best Actor winner
With this India TV honour, Akshaye Khanna beats Vicky Kaushal, Ranveer Singh, Aamir Khan and Rishab Shetty, to win the maximum votes as Best Actor. His performances as Aurangzeb and Rehman Dakait clearly proved to be audience-winners this year.
Akshaye Khanna as Rehman Dakait was a fan-favourite. Right from his iconic entry to the Fa9la track to his humour, and even the villain that he was, everything earned him widespread acclaim.
India TV, in its review for Dhurandhar, gave a special shout-out to Akshaye Khanna. An excerpt on him can be read: “Akshaye Khanna matches him step for step. He delivers every dialogue with such precision and calm intensity that it’s hard to take your eyes off him. His role in the film is substantial, and he dominates the screen throughout his presence.”
