With Subhash Ghai's 'Taal' coming in, the situation improved only marginally for Akshaye. But after a long hiatus of several years, Akshaye finally bounced back with Farhan Akhtar's 'Dil Chahta Hai' in which he was pitted opposite the beauty emeritus, Dimple Kapadia. Thereafter, there has been no looking back for him. He had Abbas-Mustan's hit, 'Humraaz' (with Bobby Deol and Amisha Patel), which saw his market soaring. His next release 'Deewangee' (with Ajay Devgan and Urmila Matondkar) also fared reasonably well at the box-office, as did his post-'Deewangee' flick, 'Hungama' with Priyadarsan. Recently, he was even seen in the crowd in J.P. Dutta's 'LoC'. Over the last few years, Akshaye's career graph has been zooming upwards but the man still refuses to go on a signing spree!
Akshaye has always been different (in the true sense of the word) from the rest of the actors' brigade - reserved, introverted and extremely selective about the work he takes on. He hasn't signed any film of late except Venus' 'Hulchul' (with Kareena Kapoor) being directed by Priyadarsan. He also has plans of turning producer and has a script ready on which he has been actively working.
On the personal front, he's rock-steady with his old friend cum actress Tara Sharma. So that's Akshaye for you - perfectly set, personally and professionally! |
