Profile

Farhan Akhtar delivered an average hit in Wazir at the beginning of 2016, but things got worse as the year progressed. His co-production Baar Baar Dekho flopped at the box office while his next release Rock On 2 was a non-starter. His separation with Adhuna, his wife of 15 years, also made news in 2016.
Fast Fact: Farhan Akhtar worked as an assistant director on actor Akshaye Khanna's debut film, Himalay Putra.
