Akshaye Khanna spends time in Alibaug

Recently, a priest named Shivam Mhatre shared a video on Instagram offering a glimpse of Akshaye performing a Vastu Shanti hawan at his home in Alibaug.

In the clip, Akshaye is seen participating in the rituals alongside three priests. He is dressed casually in a white shirt paired with blue denim.

Sharing the pictures on his Instagram account, Shivam Mhatre wrote, “I had the good fortune of performing a traditional and devotional puja at actor Akshay Khanna’s residence. His calm nature, simplicity, and positive energy made the experience truly special.”

“When it comes to class in acting, Akshay Khanna stands apart. Through his powerful and impactful role in the historical film Chhaava, he once again captured the audience’s attention. This was followed by his sharp and intense character in Dhurandhar, his restrained yet highly compelling performance in Drishyam 2, and his serious, realistic role in Section 375 — each film reflecting a new height in his acting journey. With carefully chosen roles, meaningful cinema, and mature performances, Akshay Khanna continues to hold a unique and respected place in the hearts of audiences,” he added.

The video, shared by the priest who conducted the puja, has caught everyone’s attention ever since it surfaced online. One social media user wrote, “My man is chilling after delivering 2 500+ crs blockbusters in a single year”, with another sharing, “Bro acted in two of the biggest Hindi films of the time & went on Alibag to chill.”

“He seems content,” one wrote. Another comment read, “I aspire to be like this man. Not performative, not attention hungry, content and man has quiet confidence that shows in his aura. Does his job with perfection and disappears. No overactive pr or anything. Loveee him!”

“Aww cutiee putiee is chillinggg he deserves to rest,” one gushed.
