Akshay Kumar Tashan Movie Exclusive Page

Tashan (2008), a high-octane action-comedy directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, is perhaps best remembered today for its audacious style over substance and as the film where Bollywood superstars Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor famously fell in love. However, at its heart, the movie’s engine was the high-energy performance of Akshay Kumar as the lovable, "desi" wannabe gangster, Bachchan Pande. The Plot: A Road Trip of Deceit
