Akshaye Khanna’s Viral Dance from Dhurandhar Inspires Delhi, Mumbai Police Awareness Campaigns (VIDEO)

Akshaye Khanna’s Viral Dance from Dhurandhar: The Delhi Police joined a growing social media trend on Wednesday by using a popular scene from the film Dhurandhar to deliver an anti-drug message. Akshaye Khanna’s entry as Rehman Dakait set to Flipperachi’s Arabic rap track FA9LA has become a major hit online. His walk and dance move have turned into a favourite moment for meme creators and reel makers.

On Wednesday, the Delhi Police shared two edited clips from the film on X. The first shows Khanna stepping out of his car with full attitude, captioned “What you think you look like when high.” The second shows him lying on the floor, exhausted and trembling, with the text “But here is where you actually end up.” The posts carry a clear warning that drugs offer only an illusion and can take control of life.

Drug’s high might feel real, but it’s an illusion.

Mumbai Police also used the same viral scene to warn users about online scams. Their post says scammers enter bank accounts the moment people overshare personal details on the internet.
