Akshaye Khanna’s Unexpected Outburst on Set
Actor Akshaye Khanna , who is usually known for his composed and soft-spoken nature, once stunned everyone on a film set after losing his temper over the mistreatment of a junior actor. Recalling the incident, actor Amit Behl revealed that Akshaye “unleashed a volcano” on the producer after learning that the actor had been stopped from having lunch with the main cast and crew.
“The moment this actor had his first bite at the hotel’s lunch buffet, the producer’s wife or some relative noticed that he didn’t belong there and said he shouldn’t be eating that food. Just as he had begun, someone from production came over and said, ‘Sir, you can’t eat this.’ He was hurt and quietly kept the plate aside and sat by himself,” Amit said.
The Incident: Junior Actor Denied Lunch
Amit shared that Akshaye, who had been watching the incident from afar, immediately stepped in. According to him, the actor lost his temper and blasted everyone involved, including the producer and the crew members.
“Akshaye, who usually speaks very little, gave a speech about what hunger truly means and what respect truly means. That day, I realised how intense and thoughtful he is towards his fellow artists. He said, ‘A film doesn’t get made by the number of plates or how much food you have; it is made by the blessings of people.’ It really looked like a man who hardly speaks had finally unleashed the volcano within him,” he added.
