Akshay Kumar pays tribute to Feroz Khan in ‘Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta’
Akshay Kumar stands for versatility in Bollywood as he is known for encompassing roles from different genres readily and adeptly. From his action films to his comic roles, Akshay does everything just perfectly.
The actor will be seen donning a cowboy avatar in the film BOSS, for the song Har Kisi Ko Nahi Milta.
Akshay was keen on shooting this video in true Feroz Khan’s style, the Bollywood superstar has always been a big fan of Khan. He wanted the look of the song to be very stylish and quite larger than life, that’s where the ranch (farmhouse style with horses, mills) setting came in. This is Akshay’s way of paying respect to the great actor and director Feroz Khan.
Along with Akshay the song features Sonakshi Sinha and has a backdrop in a ranch with beautiful white horses running around the duo.
When quizzed Akshay about him donning the late Feroz Khan’s style he said, “I consider Feroz Khan to be the Boss of coolness and style. I hope I have been able to do justice to his personality.”
Produced by Viacom 18, Cape of Good Films and Ashwin Varde Productions, BOSS is directed by Anthony D’souza and stars Akshay Kumar, Mithun Chakraborty, Shiv Pandit, Aditi Rao Hydari, Johny Lever and Danny Denzongpa.
The BOSS will hit the screens on 16 October.

Jio Studios, Sanjay Dutt team up to revive Khal Nayak
Rights acquired for new version, format under wraps as remake plans take shape.
MUMBAI: The villain is back and this time, he’s rewriting his own script. Jio Studios has partnered with Three Dimension Motion Pictures and Aspect Entertainment to revive the 1993 cult classic Khal Nayak, marking a fresh chapter for one of Bollywood’s most iconic anti-hero stories. The original film, directed by Subhash Ghai under Mukta Arts, was a commercial and cultural milestone, with Sanjay Dutt’s portrayal of Ballu becoming one of Hindi cinema’s most memorable performances.
Dutt, along with Aksha Kamboj, has now acquired the rights from the original creators, bringing on board Jio Studios and its President Jyoti Deshpande to steer the project creatively.
While the exact format whether remake, sequel, prequel, or a completely new narrative remains undisclosed, the collaboration aims to reinterpret the story for contemporary audiences while retaining the essence that made the original a defining film of the 1990s.
The move taps into a broader industry trend of reviving legacy intellectual property, particularly characters with strong recall value. “Khal Nayak” was notable for pushing mainstream Hindi cinema into morally grey territory at a time when heroes were largely one-dimensional, making Ballu’s character a standout.
The project also marks the film production debut of Aspect Entertainment, signalling a push towards more technology-led storytelling frameworks. Meanwhile, Jio Studios continues to expand its slate, having built a library of over 200 films and series, with more than 60 titles collectively winning 500-plus awards.
For Dutt, the revival is as much personal as it is strategic, a return to a role that reshaped his career. For the industry, it is another sign that nostalgia, when paired with scale, remains a powerful box-office proposition.
Because in Bollywood, some villains never fade, they just wait for the perfect comeback.
