The Dhurandhar mania is showing no signs of slowing down, and now it has found an unexpected yet delightful fan in badminton champion Saina Nehwal. Days after veteran actress Tanuja praised the film and expressed admiration for Akshaye Khanna’s performance, Saina has hopped onto the trend by recreating the viral dance step from Khanna’s powerful entry sequence.
Sharing the clip on Instagram, Saina is seen effortlessly performing the hook step from the chart-topping track ‘Flipperachi’, which has become the latest rage on social media. The song, which underscores Akshaye’s dramatic introduction as Rehman Dakait—a feared Pakistani gangster-turned-political genius—has taken over reels, edits, and fan pages, making it one of the season’s most popular soundtrack moments. – Saina Nehwal Recreates Akshaye Khanna Viral Dhurandhar Dance
