After a brief introduction to the talented Akhtar family of Bollywood, now back to Farhan. Javed Akhtar’s darling went a step ahead and created ‘Excel Entertainment Production House’. In which his partner is Ritesh Sidhwani. In 2001, Farhan Akhtar made ‘Dil Chahta Hai’. Farhan wrote and directed this film. He proved his mettle as soon as he entered the industry.
Farhan roped in a new trio like Aamir Khan, Akshaye Khanna and Saif Ali Khan in his film ‘Dil Chahta Hai’. The concept of the film was well received. As a result, the film became a box office hit and Farhan’s debut film won the National Award in the category of Best Feature Film ,.
After this, he came with Hrithik Roshan with the film ‘Lakshya’ on the Kargil war. The story of this film was written by Javed Akhtar. The film proved to be average. The very next day after the release of ‘Lakshya’, Farhan met Shah Rukh Khan and told about his new project. This film was ‘Don’ in the year 2006. Making this film was not easy for both Farhan and Shahrukh Khan. It was difficult to make a remake of a film by an artist like Amitabh Bachchan.
While offering the film ‘Don’ to Shahrukh Khan, Farhan Akhtar had clearly said that he wanted to cast Hrithik Roshan in Don. But this role requires maturity, for which only you are fit. Both agreed on this project and when the film was released on the big screen, it broke many box office records.
Farhan started working on a new story in the year 2008. This was the story of ‘Rock On’. Abhishek Kapoor directed the film ‘Rock On’ and for the first time Farhan started his career as an actor on screen. Farhan won the second National Award of his career for the film.
Farhan progressed rapidly in his career. He worked in films like ‘Luck By Chance’, ‘Karthik Calling Karthik’, ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’, ‘Don 2’. In the year 2013, Farhan once again came into the limelight. The reason for this was Milkha Singh’s biopic ‘Bhaag Milkha Bhaag’. The film, directed by Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra, did wonders at the box. Critics praised Farhan for his hard work and acting.
After this, Farhan Akhtar traveled to ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’, ‘Wazir’, ‘Shaadi Ke Side Effects’, ‘Lucknow Central’, ‘The Sky Is Pink’ and ‘Toofan’.
Now back to Farhan Akhtar’s personal life. These days he is in a relationship with VJ Shibani Dandekar. Both have made their relationship official. Farhan is divorced.
